Take Your Keys to the Cloud

The Cloud Integration Option Pack (CIOP) lets cloud service users generate keys in their own environment and export them for use in the cloud while having confidence that their key has been generated securely using a strong entropy source and the long-term storage of their key is protected by a FIPS-certified HSM. Supported cloud services include Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Compute Engine, Microsoft Azure and Salesforce.
