Encryption Key Management for Your Business

HSM implementation services keep your most valuable encryption keys inside tamper-evident hardware, not in a config file. Omeiro designs and sets up key management using AWS CloudHSM, Azure Dedicated HSM and cloud KMS, including generation, rotation and storage of master keys.

Basic Package

Key management (KMS) set up for 1 app. 4-day delivery, 2 revisions.

Standard Package

Up to 3 apps; key rotation. 7-day delivery, 2 revisions.

Premium Package

HSM-backed setup; policies; docs. 10-day delivery, 2 revisions.

Clear brief first

We confirm what you need before work starts, so the scope is clear on both sides.

Revisions listed

Each package shows its revision rounds. A round is one list of changes sent together.

Yours once paid

Copyright of the final work passes to you once the order is paid in full.

Work starts only after the scope is agreed in writing and you confirm you own or control the systems involved.

How it works

How our encryption key management works

1

Inventory the keys

We list what is encrypted, where keys live and who can reach them.

2

Design

Hierarchy, rotation and access rules are drawn up.

3

Build

KMS or HSM resources are created and apps are pointed at them.

4

Document

Policies and runbooks show how keys are created, rotated and retired.

Why Omeiro

HSM implementation: matching the design to your risk

HSM implementation choices follow your compliance and threat model. A cloud KMS is often enough for application encryption, while a dedicated HSM suits cases where rules require single-tenant hardware or where you must hold exclusive control of key material. Tell us which clouds you use, what the keys protect and any standards you must meet, such as PCI or FIPS requirements. That decides the architecture before any hardware or service is ordered.

Key lifecycle design is the part most teams skip: who may create keys, how often they rotate, how they are backed up, what happens when an employee leaves and how a compromised key is revoked. Good HSM implementation writes these answers into policy and tests them, for example by rotating a key in a non-production environment. The documentation gives auditors something concrete and gives engineers a runbook to follow.

In short

  • Delivery in 4 to 10 days, by package.
  • Fixed price, shown before you order.
  • Payment, health and fintech firms with strict key custody rules.
  • Cloud teams wanting aws cloudhsm setup without trial and error.
  • Copyright yours after full payment.
FAQ

Encryption Key Management: common questions

How much does encryption key management cost?

Prices are fixed and shown by package on our Encryption Key Management pricing page, so you see the full price before you order. You can also ask for a custom quote.

How long does key management consulting take?

Delivery depends on the package: Basic 4-day delivery; Standard 7-day delivery; Premium 10-day delivery.

What is included in the Basic Package?

The Basic Package includes: Key management (KMS) set up for 1 app. Higher packages add more scope, revisions and support.

Can I get a custom AWS cloudhsm setup package?

Yes. If none of the packages fits, use the custom package form on our pricing page to describe what you need, and our team sends you a fixed price.

Do I need an HSM or is KMS enough?

Many workloads are fine with cloud KMS, while strict compliance may require dedicated hardware.

Who controls the keys?

You do. We configure access, then hand control to your team.

Will apps need code changes?

Often small changes are needed so they call the key service.

Which clouds are covered?

AWS and Azure are covered by the services we use, and we confirm your setup first.

What is the difference between an HSM and a cloud KMS?

A cloud KMS is a managed key service sharing underlying hardware with other customers, while an HSM is dedicated tamper-resistant hardware under your control. KMS is simpler and cheaper to run, and HSMs suit stricter requirements.

Who owns the final work?

Copyright of the final work passes to you once the order is paid in full. Paid fonts, stock files or licences, if used, are licensed in your name.
