BYOK prerequisites #33678

Closed gsartzetakis closed 5 years ago

gsartzetakis commented 5 years ago

Hello, I'm a bit confused regarding the nCipher nShield HSMs, smartcards, and support software prerequisites. Are these generic prerequisites for BYOK for Azure Key Vault or not? Are other vendor HSM devices supported for the same purpose ?

@gsartzetakis Yes, these are the generic prerequisites for BYOK in Azure. AFAIK Azure Key Vault supports nCipher only to protect your keys.
