Azure_Security_Benchmark_v3.0 DP-5 Azure_Security_Benchmark_v3.0_DP-5 Microsoft cloud security benchmark DP-5 Data Protection Use customer-managed key option in data at rest encryption when required Shared **Security Principle:** If required for regulatory compliance, define the use case and service scope where customer-managed key option is needed. Enable and implement data at rest encryption using customer-managed key in services. **Azure Guidance:** Azure also provides encryption option using keys managed by yourself (customer-managed keys) for certain services. However, using customer-managed key option requires additional operational efforts to manage the key lifecycle. This may include encryption key generation, rotation, revoke and access control, etc. **Implementation and additional context:** Encryption model and key management table: https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/security/fundamentals/encryption-models Services that support encryption using customer-managed key: https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/security/fundamentals/encryption-models#supporting-services How to configure customer managed encryption keys in Azure Storage: https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/storage/common/storage-encryption-keys-portal n/a link 10
