Purpose-Built for Schrems II & Data Sovereignty
Keys generated and managed outside hyperscaler trust boundaries. Customer-controlled key lifecycle and access policies. Clear jurisdictional separation for EU and global workloads.
External Key Management
Alcazarix provides HSM-generated, externally managed encryption keys for AWS KMS, Azure Key Vault, and Google Cloud KMS — helping SaaS companies meet global data residency and sovereignty requirements without FIPS complexity.
Why Alcazarix
An External Key Management platform designed for BYOK in cloud-native environments — delivering Schrems II–compliant key ownership without the cost, complexity, or overreach of traditional HSM vendors.
Keys generated and managed outside hyperscaler trust boundaries. Customer-controlled key lifecycle and access policies. Clear jurisdictional separation for EU and global workloads.
Direct integration with leading cloud KMS platforms. AWS KMS External Key Store (XKS), Azure Key Vault Managed HSM BYOK, and Google Cloud KMS EKM support. No application-level key handling required.
Intentionally not FIPS-certified to focus on controls that matter for Schrems II and BYOK — key ownership, access governance, auditability, and resilience — without FIPS-driven cost and rigidity.
Lower total cost of ownership than Thales, Utimaco, and Fortanix. Transparent pricing aligned to usage, not appliance count. Built for SaaS scale, not on-prem legacy workflows.
Trusted by healthcare SaaS, financial services, data platforms, and global SaaS with EU customers. Meet regulatory expectations without slowing engineering teams.
Alcazarix maintains security controls aligned with SOC 2 Type II compliance, providing governance and auditability required for enterprise customers and regulated industries.
Compliance
Alcazarix enables true external key ownership by separating encryption key generation, storage, and governance from hyperscaler infrastructure. This architectural separation helps organizations address Schrems II, data residency, and cross-border access concerns — without abandoning cloud-native services.
