Research on Key Management Infrastructure in Cloud Computing Environment

Cloud customers and providers need to guard against data loss and theft. Encryption of personal and enterprise data is strongly recommended, Strong encryption with key management is one of the core mechanisms that Cloud Computing systems should use to protect data. In cases where the cloud provider must perform key management, in this paper, cloud key management (CKMI) is proposed, its creation and subsequent adoption will reduce the complexity of encryption management. By enabling support for interoperability between cloud cryptographic clients and cloud key management servers, CKMI reduces infrastructure costs and the risks.
