Cloud trust paradox: three scenarios where encryption keys are not stored in the cloud

In our articles  on the paradox of trust in cloud platforms  and securely managing encryption keys , we noted that in some situations, encryption keys should not be stored with the cloud provider. Such situations, albeit rare, do occur. Moreover, when this happens, it is usually a very serious problem or important data.





In this article, we will look at 3 scenarios where keys need to be stored outside the cloud, despite all the benefits of the cloud.
