ENCRYPTION / KEY MANAGEMENT

Own Your Keys Across Every Cloud

Encryption is only as strong as control of its keys — and most organizations scatter keys across cloud KMS silos they don't fully own. Lattix centralizes key control with BYOK and HYOK, binds keys to data policy, and keeps you crypto-agile.

/01The Challenge

As data spreads across clouds and services, so do its encryption keys — into per-provider KMS silos with different models, different controls, and, critically, keys that the cloud provider can often access. Organizations lose a unified view of who holds the keys to what, struggle to enforce consistent key policy, and find themselves unable to rotate algorithms or revoke access cleanly. When the provider controls the keys, encryption protects you from everyone except the provider and anyone who compels them.

  • Keys are scattered across per-cloud KMS silos with inconsistent control.
  • Cloud providers can often access the keys protecting your data.
  • There's no unified view of which keys protect which data.
  • Rotating algorithms or revoking access cleanly is hard across providers.
  • Key policy and data access policy are managed separately and drift apart.
/02How Lattix Solves It
01

Bring or Hold Your Own Keys

Lattix supports bring-your-own-key (BYOK) and hold-your-own-key (HYOK) models, so you retain authority over the keys protecting your data — including options where the cloud provider never holds usable key material. Encryption protects your data from the infrastructure it runs on, not just outsiders.

02

Bind Keys to Data Policy

Key access is governed by the same attribute-based policy that controls the data, so unwrapping a data object requires satisfying policy — not merely possessing a key. Key management and access governance stop being separate systems that drift apart.

03

Centralize Across Clouds

A unified control plane manages keys across AWS, Azure, GCP, on-prem, and edge, giving you one view and one policy model for key custody — instead of reconciling per-provider KMS silos.

04

Stay Crypto-Agile

Because cryptography and keys are governed centrally by policy rather than hard-wired per application, you can rotate keys and migrate algorithms — including to post-quantum primitives — as a configuration change, keeping pace with evolving standards.

/03What You Get

/05Frequently Asked

What is the difference between BYOK and HYOK?

BYOK (bring your own key) lets you supply and manage the keys a cloud service uses, while HYOK (hold your own key) keeps key material under your exclusive control so the provider never holds usable keys. Lattix supports both, so you choose how much key authority to retain.

How does Lattix manage keys across multiple clouds?

Lattix provides a unified control plane that manages keys across AWS, Azure, GCP, on-prem, and edge with one policy model, replacing fragmented per-provider KMS silos with a single view of key custody.

How are encryption keys tied to data access policy?

Key access is governed by the same attribute-based policy that controls the data, so unwrapping a data object requires satisfying policy rather than simply possessing a key — keeping key management and access governance unified.

Can Lattix help us migrate to post-quantum encryption?

Yes. Because cryptography and keys are governed centrally by policy, you can rotate keys and migrate algorithms — including to NIST post-quantum primitives — as a configuration change rather than a per-application rewrite.
