What is Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP)

1 January 2024
No comments

Reading Time: 7 minutesTo implement some encryption solutions (like VM encryption, backup encryption, storage encryption) you need to manage symmetric keys in a secure way. Key management has always been solved with proprietary solutions. Each vendor have offered in the past their own key management server/client combination, but as the complexity of datacenters increased, this designed has shown its limits.

The ISA acts as an interface between the hardware and the software, specifying both what the processor is capable of doing as well as how it gets done. The ISA provides the only way through which a user is able to interact with the hardware. It can be viewed as a programmer’s manual because […]
