A developer is building a document processing application that must secure sensitive PDF documents before uploading them to a third-party storage service. The average size of each document is $15\text{ MB}$ . To meet security requirements, the developer must encrypt the documents client-side using an AWS KMS Customer Managed Key (CMK) while minimizing latency and network overhead. Which approach should the developer implement to encrypt these documents securely and efficiently?

Call the KMS Encrypt API directly, passing the raw document binary as the plaintext parameter along with the CMK ARN, and store the returned ciphertext.

Call the KMS GenerateDataKey API with the CMK to obtain a plaintext data key and an encrypted data key. Encrypt the document locally using the plaintext data key, delete the plaintext key from memory, and store the encrypted data key alongside the encrypted document.

Call the KMS GenerateDataKeyWithoutPlaintext API to retrieve an encrypted data key. Send the encrypted data key to the KMS Decrypt API to get the plaintext key, encrypt the document locally, and store the encrypted data key with the document.

Retrieve a pre-generated symmetric key stored in AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store as a SecureString parameter using the GetParameter API. Encrypt the document locally with this key and discard the retrieved parameter value.

Cevap: Call the KMS GenerateDataKey API with the CMK to obtain a plaintext data key and an encrypted data key. Encrypt the document locally using the plaintext data key, delete the plaintext key from memory, and store the encrypted data key alongside the encrypted document.

Cevap

The correct approach is to call the KMS GenerateDataKey API to obtain both a plaintext data key and an encrypted data key. The plaintext key is used to encrypt the document locally, and is then discarded from memory. The encrypted data key is stored alongside the encrypted document so that it can be decrypted later using the Decrypt API. This utilizes envelope encryption, which is necessary because the documents exceed the size limit of the direct KMS Encrypt API.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Evaluate the file size (

15\text{ MB}

) against AWS KMS direct encryption payload limits.

Since the direct KMS Encrypt API has a strict limit of

4\text{ KB}

, direct encryption is not possible. Envelope encryption must be used.

To select the appropriate KMS workflow based on payload size constraints.

Determine the most efficient API call for obtaining data keys for client-side envelope encryption.

GenerateDataKey returns both the plaintext key (for local encryption) and the encrypted key (for storage) in a single network request.

To minimize latency and network calls during document upload processing.

Validate security best practices for handling the generated plaintext data key.

Once the document is encrypted locally with the plaintext key, the plaintext key is deleted from application memory, and the encrypted key is packaged with the ciphertext.

To ensure the plaintext key is not exposed or leaked.

Cevap

To encrypt a file larger than

4\text{ KB}

client-side, the developer must generate a data key by calling the GenerateDataKey API, use the returned plaintext data key to encrypt the report locally, discard the plaintext key from memory, and store the encrypted data key alongside the encrypted audit report.

To encrypt a large file client-side using AWS KMS, the developer must implement envelope encryption. This involves calling the GenerateDataKey API to obtain both a plaintext data key and an encrypted data key. The plaintext data key is used to encrypt the audit report locally, after which the plaintext key is discarded from memory. The encrypted data key is then stored with the encrypted report so that it can be decrypted later by calling the Decrypt API to recover the plaintext key.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Generate a unique data key.

The GenerateDataKey API is called, which returns a plaintext data key and an encrypted data key.

Since the file exceeds the direct encryption limit of AWS KMS, envelope encryption is required. The plaintext key is needed to perform the encryption, and the encrypted key is saved for future decryption.

Encrypt the data locally.

The Fargate container encrypts the

8\text{ MB}

report using the plaintext data key.

This performs the actual cryptographic operation locally without sending the large file to AWS KMS.

Clean up memory and store metadata.

The plaintext key is cleared from the container's memory, and the encrypted data key is written alongside the encrypted report.

Holding the plaintext key longer than necessary in memory presents a security risk, and the encrypted data key is the only way to recover the plaintext key during decryption.

Cevap: Call the GenerateDataKey API operation to obtain a plaintext data key and an encrypted copy of the data key. Use the plaintext key to encrypt the payload locally, discard the plaintext key from memory, and store the encrypted payload alongside the encrypted data key.

Cevap

For data larger than

4\text{ KB}

, developers must use envelope encryption. Calling the GenerateDataKey API provides a plaintext data key to perform local symmetric encryption of the

1.5\text{ MB}

payload and an encrypted copy of the data key. Once encryption is complete, the plaintext data key is discarded from memory, and the encrypted payload is stored alongside the encrypted data key. The encrypted data key can later be sent to KMS Decrypt to retrieve the plaintext key for decryption.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the size limit of the direct KMS Encrypt API and compare it to the transaction payload size.

The transaction payload is

1.5\text{ MB}

, which exceeds the

4\text{ KB}

limit of the direct KMS Encrypt API.

KMS direct encryption cannot process payloads larger than

4\text{ KB}

, requiring the use of envelope encryption.

Evaluate the options for envelope encryption using AWS KMS APIs.

Calling GenerateDataKey provides both the plaintext data key for local encryption and the encrypted data key for storage.

GenerateDataKey generates the keys locally without transmitting the actual data payload to KMS, which is highly efficient.

Complete the envelope encryption workflow locally on the client.

The plaintext key encrypts the payload, is removed from memory, and the encrypted payload is stored with the encrypted data key.

This ensures the plaintext key is not exposed and the data can be decrypted later by decrypting the data key with KMS.

In Account A, attach an IAM policy to the ECS task execution role that allows the kms:Decrypt action on the KMS key ARN in Account B.

In Account B, update the S3 bucket policy to grant kms:Decrypt permissions to the application's IAM task role in Account A.

Cevap: In Account B, update the KMS key policy of the CMK to grant the kms:Decrypt action to the application's IAM task role in Account A.; In Account A, attach an IAM policy to the application's IAM task role that allows the kms:Decrypt action on the KMS key ARN in Account B.

Cevap

In Account B, update the KMS key policy of the CMK to grant the kms:Decrypt action to the application's IAM task role in Account A; and in Account A, attach an IAM policy to the application's IAM task role that allows the kms:Decrypt action on the KMS key ARN in Account B.

Cross-account access to KMS keys requires validation at both the resource level and the identity level. First, the key policy of the Customer Managed Key in Account B must be configured to trust the external account or role. Second, the IAM policy in the application's account (Account A) must grant the application's IAM role permission to call the KMS API. Because the application logic runs within ECS containers, these permissions must be applied to the ECS Task Role.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Differentiate between the ECS task role and the ECS task execution role.

Identify that the application container uses the ECS Task Role for application-level AWS API calls (such as KMS decryption), whereas the Task Execution Role is for container agent operations.

This prevents assigning permissions to the wrong IAM role.

Configure the key-level permissions in the KMS key owner's account (Account B).

Update the KMS key policy in Account B to delegate decrypt permissions to the IAM task role ARN from Account A.

AWS KMS requires the key policy to explicitly allow cross-account access, as identity-based IAM policies in the external account are not sufficient on their own.

Configure the identity-level permissions in the application's account (Account A).

Attach an IAM policy to the ECS Task Role in Account A allowing the kms:Decrypt action on the target KMS key ARN.

For cross-account access, permissions must be allowed on both the resource policy (key policy) and the identity policy (IAM policy).

A developer is designing a serverless backend using AWS Lambda that processes sensitive customer records. Each record contains a profile payload averaging $15$ KB in size. The application must encrypt these payloads before storing them in an Amazon DynamoDB table. To meet strict performance and cost-efficiency requirements, the developer must implement client-side envelope encryption using a Customer Managed Key (CMK) managed by AWS KMS. Which of the following application workflows represents the most secure, cost-effective, and architecturally correct implementation of client-side envelope encryption?

Call the KMS Encrypt API directly, passing the

Encrypt the customer record payload locally using the plaintext data key, delete the plaintext data key from memory, and store the encrypted payload and the encrypted data key together in the DynamoDB item.

Cevap

The correct workflow calls the KMS GenerateDataKey API to obtain both the plaintext data key and the encrypted data key in a single request. The plaintext key is used locally to encrypt the payload and then immediately cleared from memory, while the encrypted data key is stored directly alongside the encrypted payload in the DynamoDB table.

The correct workflow uses the GenerateDataKey API, which yields both a plaintext data key and an encrypted data key in a single request. The plaintext key is used locally to encrypt the payload and then immediately cleared from memory, while the encrypted data key is stored directly alongside the encrypted payload in the DynamoDB table. This implements client-side envelope encryption securely and efficiently, bypassing the

4

KB size limit of the Encrypt API without introducing unnecessary API calls or storage overhead.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Evaluate the payload size and KMS constraints.

The record size of

15

KB exceeds the

4

KB direct encryption limit of the KMS Encrypt API, indicating envelope encryption is required.

To determine if direct KMS encryption is a viable or correct option.

Analyze key generation and retrieval efficiency.

Using GenerateDataKey provides both the plaintext key (for immediate encryption) and the ciphertext key in a single API call, whereas GenerateDataKeyWithoutPlaintext would require a second Decrypt API call.

To minimize KMS API costs and latency.

Determine the storage location for the encrypted data key.

The encrypted data key should be stored directly alongside the encrypted payload in the DynamoDB item, rather than external systems like Secrets Manager or Parameter Store.

To avoid external resource overhead, scale efficiently, and follow proper envelope encryption architecture.

Cevap

To implement this client-side envelope encryption workflow, the developer must call the GenerateDataKey API with the EncryptionContext parameter containing the TransactionID and VaultRegion as key-value pairs, and pass the identical EncryptionContext key-value pairs in the Decrypt API call when decrypting the encrypted data key.

The correct options describe the standard AWS KMS envelope encryption workflow using Encryption Context. The EncryptionContext parameter in the GenerateDataKey API call cryptographically binds the key-value pair metadata (TransactionID and VaultRegion) to the encrypted data key. During decryption, passing the identical EncryptionContext map is mandatory; otherwise, AWS KMS cannot decrypt the data key. Both calls are logged in AWS CloudTrail with the encryption context in plaintext.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Generate a unique data key with context.

The application calls the GenerateDataKey API on AWS KMS, passing the Customer Managed Key ARN and an EncryptionContext map containing the TransactionID and VaultRegion.

This cryptographically binds the metadata to the encrypted version of the data key and records it in AWS CloudTrail.

Encrypt the payload locally.

The application uses the plaintext data key to encrypt the transaction payload locally, then discards the plaintext data key from memory.

This completes the client-side envelope encryption process safely without exposing the plaintext key.

Decrypt the data key using the identical context.

When decrypting the payload, the application calls the Decrypt API, passing the ciphertext data key and the identical EncryptionContext map.

AWS KMS validates the context against the cryptographic signature in the ciphertext. If they match, it returns the plaintext data key to decrypt the payload.

Cevap

Call the AWS KMS GenerateDataKey API operation by passing the customer managed key identifier to obtain both a plaintext data key and a ciphertext data key, and encrypt the database export file locally using the plaintext data key with a symmetric encryption algorithm, and then delete the plaintext data key from memory.

The correct answer combines calling the AWS KMS GenerateDataKey API to retrieve both key formats and performing the symmetric encryption locally before deleting the plaintext key from memory. Since the database export file is

500\text{ MB}

, direct encryption via the AWS KMS Encrypt API is impossible due to its

4\text{ KB}

payload limit. Locally encrypting with the plaintext data key and then immediately destroying it ensures maximum security.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Generate a unique data key pair using AWS KMS.

Obtained a plaintext data key and a ciphertext data key via the GenerateDataKey API call.

The file size (

500\text{ MB}

) exceeds the direct encryption payload limit of

4\text{ KB}

for AWS KMS, so envelope encryption must be initiated.

Encrypt the file locally.

The file is encrypted using a symmetric cipher (such as AES-GCM) with the plaintext data key.

Envelope encryption requires the actual data to be encrypted client-side using the generated plaintext data key.

Secure the encryption keys.

The plaintext data key is discarded from memory, and the ciphertext data key is saved for future decryption.

This prevents exposure of the plaintext key and allows future decryption by sending the ciphertext data key back to AWS KMS.

Cevap: kms:GenerateDataKey; kms:Decrypt

Cevap

The correct answer consists of the operations kms:GenerateDataKey and kms:Decrypt.

The correct operations are kms:GenerateDataKey and kms:Decrypt. In envelope encryption, the application calls kms:GenerateDataKey to obtain a plaintext data key (to encrypt the payload locally) and a ciphertext data key (to store alongside the encrypted payload). To decrypt the data, the application calls kms:Decrypt with the ciphertext data key to retrieve the plaintext data key, which is then used to decrypt the payload locally.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the requirement for client-side envelope encryption and decryption of DynamoDB items using a customer managed key.

Identify that the application needs to dynamically generate a unique symmetric data key for each item, encrypt the payload locally, store the encrypted key with the item, and retrieve the plaintext key for decryption later.

This establishes the workflow where the KMS customer managed key is only used to protect the data keys, not the database payloads directly.

Determine the API operation required for the encryption phase.

Identify kms:GenerateDataKey as the API call that provides the plaintext key for immediate local encryption and the ciphertext key for storage.

Using kms:GenerateDataKeyWithoutPlaintext would require an additional round-trip to decrypt the key, and kms:Encrypt violates envelope encryption by sending the payload itself to KMS.

Determine the API operation required for the decryption phase.

Identify kms:Decrypt as the API call used to decrypt the stored ciphertext data key back to its plaintext form.

A developer is designing a secure file upload utility for a containerized microservice. The utility must encrypt files up to $100\text{ MB}$ locally before uploading them to an Amazon S3 bucket named `my-app-data`. To comply with strict security and auditing guidelines, the solution must satisfy the following requirements:

1. Ensure that plaintext data keys are never persisted or stored in any AWS service.
2. Prevent unauthorized decryption if the encrypted files are copied to a different S3 bucket.
3. Minimize AWS KMS API calls to avoid rate-limiting/throttling and control costs.
4. Record all cryptographic key usage in AWS CloudTrail for auditing.

Which KMS API workflow and architecture meets these requirements?

Call the KMS `GenerateDataKey` API using the Customer Managed Key (CMK), passing `{"Bucket": "my-app-data"}` as the `EncryptionContext`. Use the returned plaintext data key to encrypt the file locally using a symmetric encryption library, immediately delete the plaintext key from memory, and upload the encrypted file to S3 with the ciphertext data key stored in the object's user-defined metadata.

Call the KMS `GenerateDataKeyWithoutPlaintext` API using the Customer Managed Key (CMK), passing `{"Bucket": "my-app-data"}` as the `EncryptionContext`.

Cevap: Call the KMS `GenerateDataKey` API using the Customer Managed Key (CMK), passing `{"Bucket": "my-app-data"}` as the `EncryptionContext`. Use the returned plaintext data key to encrypt the file locally using a symmetric encryption library, immediately delete the plaintext key from memory, and upload the encrypted file to S3 with the ciphertext data key stored in the object's user-defined metadata.

Cevap

The correct workflow uses `GenerateDataKey` with an `EncryptionContext` of the target bucket. This generates both the plaintext key (needed to perform the encryption locally) and the ciphertext key. The plaintext key is used to encrypt the payload and is immediately discarded. The ciphertext key is stored in the object's S3 metadata. Binding the bucket name via `EncryptionContext` ensures that if the object is copied to another bucket, decryption will fail because the context won't match the new bucket name.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Request a data key from KMS with bucket context.

Receive both a plaintext data key and a ciphertext data key cryptographically bound to the bucket name via `EncryptionContext`.

This establishes the client-side envelope encryption workflow and enforces the security boundary constraint.

Encrypt the file payload locally.

The file is encrypted using a local symmetric library (like AES-GCM) with the plaintext data key.

This keeps encryption client-side, handles payloads larger than the KMS 4 KB direct encryption limit, and reduces network latency.

Secure memory and prepare metadata.

The plaintext data key is purged from the application's memory, leaving only the ciphertext data key.

This minimizes the lifetime of the plaintext key in memory, satisfying the security requirements.

Upload the encrypted file and metadata.

The encrypted file is uploaded to the S3 bucket, with the ciphertext data key stored in S3 metadata.

This keeps the encrypted payload and its decryptable key together, allowing decryption later only if the exact bucket context is provided to the KMS Decrypt API.

The correct options describe the client-side envelope encryption workflow: calling the GenerateDataKey API to get both the plaintext and ciphertext keys, using the plaintext key to encrypt the file locally, and subsequently discarding the plaintext key from memory.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Generate data keys using AWS KMS

The application receives a plaintext data key and a ciphertext data key from the GenerateDataKey API call.

The plaintext key is needed to perform the encryption algorithm locally, and the ciphertext key is needed to store with the data for future decryption.

Encrypt the file locally

The file is encrypted using the plaintext data key.

Envelope encryption uses a unique symmetric data key locally to secure the file content.

Clean up memory and prepare storage

The plaintext key is deleted from the application's memory, and the encrypted file is paired with the ciphertext data key.

Removing the plaintext key from memory minimizes the risk of exposure. The ciphertext data key can be safely stored alongside the encrypted file in S3.

Anahtar Kavram

Envelope encryption is the practice of encrypting data with a data key, and then encrypting the data key under another key.

A developer is implementing a security strategy for an application. The application needs to retrieve a database password and also encrypt application audit logs (average size $2\text{ MB}$ ) locally before archiving them to Amazon S3. The database password requires automatic rotation. The audit logs must be encrypted client-side using a customer managed key (KMS key) in AWS KMS. Which combination of services and KMS operations should the developer use to meet these requirements?

Store the database password in AWS Secrets Manager to enable automatic rotation. For the audit logs, call GenerateDataKey to obtain a plaintext data key and an encrypted data key, encrypt the logs locally with the plaintext key, and store the encrypted data key alongside the encrypted logs in S3.

Store the database password in Systems Manager Parameter Store to enable automatic rotation. For the audit logs, call Encrypt to encrypt the logs directly using the customer managed key before uploading them to S3.

Cevap: Store the database password in AWS Secrets Manager to enable automatic rotation. For the audit logs, call GenerateDataKey to obtain a plaintext data key and an encrypted data key, encrypt the logs locally with the plaintext key, and store the encrypted data key alongside the encrypted logs in S3.

Cevap

The correct approach uses AWS Secrets Manager for the database password because it provides out-of-the-box automatic rotation. For the audit logs, since the payload size (

2\text{ MB}

) exceeds the

4\text{ KB}

limit of the KMS Encrypt API, the application must use envelope encryption. The GenerateDataKey API returns both the plaintext data key (used to encrypt the file locally) and the ciphertext data key (stored alongside the encrypted logs for future decryption).

Adım Adım Çözüm

Select the appropriate secrets management service.

AWS Secrets Manager is selected because it natively supports database credential rotation, whereas Systems Manager Parameter Store does not.

Meeting the requirement for automatic rotation of the database password.

Determine the encryption method for the

Cevap: Call the GenerateDataKey API operation on AWS KMS to receive a plaintext data key and an encrypted data key. Use the plaintext data key to encrypt the database backup locally, erase the plaintext key from memory, and upload the encrypted backup along with the encrypted data key.

Cevap

The correct approach uses the GenerateDataKey API to obtain both a plaintext key (used for local encryption of the 15 GB file) and an encrypted data key (saved alongside the encrypted file). Discarding the plaintext key from memory after use adheres to the principle of least privilege and prevents memory scraping attacks.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Request a data key from AWS KMS.

The application calls the GenerateDataKey API, receiving a plaintext data key and an encrypted data key.

This initiates the envelope encryption process by obtaining the required cryptographic keys.

Perform local encryption using the plaintext key.

The database backup is encrypted locally on the application server.

Because the database backup is 15 GB, it exceeds the 4 KB limit of the KMS Encrypt API and must be encrypted locally.

Clean up memory and upload artifacts.

The plaintext key is deleted from the application memory, and the encrypted backup file and the encrypted data key are uploaded to the S3 bucket.

Erasing the plaintext key from memory minimizes the risk of key exposure. The encrypted data key can be decrypted by KMS later when the backup needs to be restored.

A developer is implementing local client-side envelope encryption for sensitive reports in a microservice before uploading them to Amazon S3. To optimize costs and network overhead, the developer aims to generate a unique data key for each report using a customer managed key in AWS KMS. However, during integration testing, the developer observes that each file encryption requires two sequential AWS KMS API calls, which is causing latency and doubling API billing. The current implementation performs `kmsClient.generateDataKeyWithoutPlaintext(...)` followed by `kmsClient.decrypt(...)`. Which modification to the code should the developer make to reduce the integration to a single AWS KMS API call per report?

Replace the `generateDataKeyWithoutPlaintext` call with `encrypt` using the customer managed key to directly encrypt the report payload, and use the `decrypt` call to decrypt it upon retrieval.

Store a pre-generated plaintext data key in AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store as a SecureString parameter, retrieve it with a single call, and use the KMS `decrypt` API only to verify its integrity.

Replace the `generateDataKeyWithoutPlaintext` call with `generateDataKey` to obtain both the plaintext data key and the ciphertext data key in a single response, and remove the subsequent `decrypt` call.

Change the second call to `reEncrypt` to convert the ciphertext data key into a format readable by the local encryption utility, bypassing the need for a plaintext key.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Replace the `generateDataKeyWithoutPlaintext` call with `generateDataKey` to obtain both the plaintext data key and the ciphertext data key in a single response, and remove the subsequent `decrypt` call.

Cevap

The correct solution is to change the API call to `generateDataKey`. Under envelope encryption, the client requires the plaintext data key to encrypt the payload locally, and the ciphertext data key to store alongside the encrypted payload. The `generateDataKey` operation returns both in a single response, removing the need for a separate, subsequent call to the `decrypt` API to extract the plaintext key.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the purpose of the current KMS API calls.

The application calls `generateDataKeyWithoutPlaintext` which only returns the encrypted (ciphertext) data key. Because it lacks the plaintext key to encrypt the payload, it must make a second call using the `decrypt` API.

Understanding the current behavior helps identify where the redundant call originates.

Select the appropriate KMS API operation for client-side envelope encryption.

Identify that the `generateDataKey` API operation returns both the plaintext data key and the ciphertext data key in a single payload.

This operation satisfies the requirements of envelope encryption by providing the plaintext key immediately for local encryption while providing the ciphertext key for storage.

Refactor the code to eliminate the secondary call.

Replace the initial call with `generateDataKey`, use the returned plaintext key to encrypt the file locally, discard the plaintext key from memory after use, and save the ciphertext key to Amazon S3 alongside the encrypted report.

This reduces the integration to a single KMS API request, minimizing latency and API costs by

50\%

Configure the Lambda execution role's IAM policy for least privilege access to the KMS key.

Allow the `kms:GenerateDataKey` action on the specific ARN of the customer managed key.

Granting permissions on AWS managed keys like `aws/s3` is incorrect because the key policies cannot be modified and the resource constraint must point to the customer managed key.

Cevap: Encrypt

Cevap

The correct answer is the Encrypt API operation, which allows direct encryption of small payloads up to

4\text{ KB}

The Encrypt API operation in AWS KMS is designed to directly encrypt small payloads up to

4\text{ KB}

using a specified KMS key. Since the database connection string is only

2\text{ KB}

in size, the developer can send the plaintext directly to AWS KMS for encryption without the overhead of generating, managing, and storing local data keys.

Analyze the payload size and the requirement to avoid local data key management.

The database connection string is

2\text{ KB}

in size, and direct encryption is preferred over envelope encryption.

This determines if direct encryption is possible and matches the developer's preference.

Check the maximum payload limit for the AWS KMS Encrypt API.

The Encrypt API supports direct encryption of data payloads up to

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Call the Decrypt API operation of AWS KMS, passing the ciphertext data key to retrieve the plaintext data key.; Decrypt the ciphertext payload locally using the retrieved plaintext data key and the appropriate decryption algorithm.

Cevap

To decrypt the payload, the application must call the KMS Decrypt API operation with the ciphertext data key to get the plaintext data key, and then decrypt the ciphertext payload locally using that plaintext data key.

To decrypt a payload that was encrypted using envelope encryption, the client application first extracts the encrypted data key (ciphertext data key) that is stored alongside the payload. The application then sends this ciphertext data key to AWS KMS by calling the Decrypt API operation. AWS KMS decrypts the data key using the specified customer managed key and returns the plaintext data key to the application. Finally, the application uses this plaintext data key to decrypt the ciphertext payload locally. This ensures that the heavy decryption workload is done client-side and the sensitive raw payload is never sent over the network to AWS KMS.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Isolate the ciphertext data key.

The ciphertext data key is separated from the encrypted configuration payload.

AWS KMS envelope encryption requires decrypting the data key before the data itself can be decrypted.

Decrypt the data key via AWS KMS.

AWS KMS decrypts the ciphertext data key and returns the plaintext data key.

The client application does not have access to the backing customer managed key and must delegate decryption of the data key to AWS KMS.

Decrypt the payload locally.

The configuration payload is decrypted back to plaintext.

Performing decryption locally avoids the network overhead of sending the payload to AWS KMS and bypasses the payload size limits of the KMS Decrypt API.
