AWS CloudHSM is a cloud-based hardware security module (HSM), allowing to easily generate encryption keys. AWS manages the hardware security module (HSM) appliance, but does not have access to your keys. Customers control and manage their own keys. A cluster of CloudHSM appliances can be provisionned within a VPC and requests are automatically load balanced across the different HSMs. There are no upfront cost to use AWS CloudHSM with per hour billing.

If you are interested in getting some hands on experience on how it works and how to use AWS CloudHSM, I have created a workshop that will guide you through that journey. You can try it here:

You will go through the steps to create, deploy and configure your own CloudHSM cluster and how to perform encryption operations.

Have fun !
