IT security firm Gemalto on Tuesday announced to provide Google Cloud Platform customers with the ability to manage and maintain full control of their encryption keys on Google Cloud Platform.

Gemalto's "SafeNet Luna Hardware Security Module" (HSM) and "SafeNet KeySecure" now fully support Google Cloud's Customer-Supplied Encryption Key (CSEK) feature.

Customers can now generate, manage and bring their own encryption keys to protect data and workloads in Google Cloud Storage and Compute Engine.

"Many Cloud service providers are offering variations of flexible key management such as bring-your-own-key (BYOK) and hold-your-own-key (HYOK). This is a big step in helping organisations leverage the growing number of cloud-based applications and services," Todd Moore, Senior Vice President of encryption products at Gemalto, said in a statement.

By integrating with Google's CSEK functionality, companies can use an on premise "SafeNet Luna HSM" to generate, manage and retain complete control of keys to secure sensitive data on Google Cloud Platform.
