NAME

Paws::KMS::CreateKey - Arguments for method CreateKey on Paws::KMS

DESCRIPTION

This class represents the parameters used for calling the method CreateKey on the AWS Key Management Service service. Use the attributes of this class as arguments to method CreateKey.

You shouldn't make instances of this class. Each attribute should be used as a named argument in the call to CreateKey.

SYNOPSIS

my $kms = Paws->service('KMS');
# To create a customer master key (CMK)
# The following example creates a CMK.
my $CreateKeyResponse = $kms->CreateKey(
  'Tags' => [

    {
      'TagKey'   => 'CreatedBy',
      'TagValue' => 'ExampleUser'
    }
  ]
);

# Results:
my $KeyMetadata = $CreateKeyResponse->KeyMetadata;

# Returns a L<Paws::KMS::CreateKeyResponse> object.

Values for attributes that are native types (Int, String, Float, etc) can passed as-is (scalar values). Values for complex Types (objects) can be passed as a HashRef. The keys and values of the hashref will be used to instance the underlying object. For the AWS API documentation, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/goto/WebAPI/kms/CreateKey

ATTRIBUTES

BypassPolicyLockoutSafetyCheck => Bool

A flag to indicate whether to bypass the key policy lockout safety check.

Setting this value to true increases the risk that the CMK becomes unmanageable. Do not set this value to true indiscriminately.

For more information, refer to the scenario in the Default Key Policy (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/key-policies.html#key-policy-default-allow-root-enable-iam) section in the AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide .

Use this parameter only when you include a policy in the request and you intend to prevent the principal that is making the request from making a subsequent PutKeyPolicy request on the CMK.

The default value is false.

CustomerMasterKeySpec => Str

Specifies the type of CMK to create. The default value, SYMMETRIC_DEFAULT, creates a CMK with a 256-bit symmetric key for encryption and decryption. For help choosing a key spec for your CMK, see How to Choose Your CMK Configuration (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/symm-asymm-choose.html) in the AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide.

The CustomerMasterKeySpec determines whether the CMK contains a symmetric key or an asymmetric key pair. It also determines the encryption algorithms or signing algorithms that the CMK supports. You can't change the CustomerMasterKeySpec after the CMK is created. To further restrict the algorithms that can be used with the CMK, use a condition key in its key policy or IAM policy. For more information, see kms:EncryptionAlgorithm (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/policy-conditions.html#conditions-kms-encryption-algorithm) or kms:Signing Algorithm (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/policy-conditions.html#conditions-kms-signing-algorithm) in the AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide.

AWS services that are integrated with AWS KMS (http://aws.amazon.com/kms/features/#AWS_Service_Integration) use symmetric CMKs to protect your data. These services do not support asymmetric CMKs. For help determining whether a CMK is symmetric or asymmetric, see Identifying Symmetric and Asymmetric CMKs (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/find-symm-asymm.html) in the AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide.

AWS KMS supports the following key specs for CMKs:

  • Symmetric key (default)

    • SYMMETRIC_DEFAULT (AES-256-GCM)

  • Asymmetric RSA key pairs

    • RSA_2048

    • RSA_3072

    • RSA_4096

  • Asymmetric NIST-recommended elliptic curve key pairs

    • ECC_NIST_P256 (secp256r1)

    • ECC_NIST_P384 (secp384r1)

    • ECC_NIST_P521 (secp521r1)

  • Other asymmetric elliptic curve key pairs

    • ECC_SECG_P256K1 (secp256k1), commonly used for cryptocurrencies.

Valid values are: "RSA_2048", "RSA_3072", "RSA_4096", "ECC_NIST_P256", "ECC_NIST_P384", "ECC_NIST_P521", "ECC_SECG_P256K1", "SYMMETRIC_DEFAULT"

CustomKeyStoreId => Str

Creates the CMK in the specified custom key store (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/custom-key-store-overview.html) and the key material in its associated AWS CloudHSM cluster. To create a CMK in a custom key store, you must also specify the Origin parameter with a value of AWS_CLOUDHSM. The AWS CloudHSM cluster that is associated with the custom key store must have at least two active HSMs, each in a different Availability Zone in the Region.

This parameter is valid only for symmetric CMKs and regional CMKs. You cannot create an asymmetric CMK or a multi-Region CMK in a custom key store.

To find the ID of a custom key store, use the DescribeCustomKeyStores operation.

The response includes the custom key store ID and the ID of the AWS CloudHSM cluster.

This operation is part of the Custom Key Store feature (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/custom-key-store-overview.html) feature in AWS KMS, which combines the convenience and extensive integration of AWS KMS with the isolation and control of a single-tenant key store.

Description => Str

A description of the CMK.

Use a description that helps you decide whether the CMK is appropriate for a task. The default value is an empty string (no description).

KeyUsage => Str

Determines the cryptographic operations (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/concepts.html#cryptographic-operations) for which you can use the CMK. The default value is ENCRYPT_DECRYPT. This parameter is required only for asymmetric CMKs. You can't change the KeyUsage value after the CMK is created.

Select only one valid value.

  • For symmetric CMKs, omit the parameter or specify ENCRYPT_DECRYPT.

  • For asymmetric CMKs with RSA key material, specify ENCRYPT_DECRYPT or SIGN_VERIFY.

  • For asymmetric CMKs with ECC key material, specify SIGN_VERIFY.

Valid values are: "SIGN_VERIFY", "ENCRYPT_DECRYPT"

MultiRegion => Bool

Creates a multi-Region primary key that you can replicate into other AWS Regions. You cannot change this value after you create the CMK.

For a multi-Region key, set this parameter to True. For a single-Region CMK, omit this parameter or set it to False. The default value is False.

This operation supports multi-Region keys, an AWS KMS feature that lets you create multiple interoperable CMKs in different AWS Regions. Because these CMKs have the same key ID, key material, and other metadata, you can use them to encrypt data in one AWS Region and decrypt it in a different AWS Region without making a cross-Region call or exposing the plaintext data. For more information about multi-Region keys, see Using multi-Region keys (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/multi-region-keys-overview.html) in the AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide.

This value creates a primary key, not a replica. To create a replica key, use the ReplicateKey operation.

You can create a symmetric or asymmetric multi-Region CMK, and you can create a multi-Region CMK with imported key material. However, you cannot create a multi-Region CMK in a custom key store.

Origin => Str

The source of the key material for the CMK. You cannot change the origin after you create the CMK. The default is AWS_KMS, which means that AWS KMS creates the key material.

To create a CMK with no key material (for imported key material), set the value to EXTERNAL. For more information about importing key material into AWS KMS, see Importing Key Material (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/importing-keys.html) in the AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide. This value is valid only for symmetric CMKs.

To create a CMK in an AWS KMS custom key store (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/custom-key-store-overview.html) and create its key material in the associated AWS CloudHSM cluster, set this value to AWS_CLOUDHSM. You must also use the CustomKeyStoreId parameter to identify the custom key store. This value is valid only for symmetric CMKs.

Valid values are: "AWS_KMS", "EXTERNAL", "AWS_CLOUDHSM"

Policy => Str

The key policy to attach to the CMK.

If you provide a key policy, it must meet the following criteria:

  • If you don't set BypassPolicyLockoutSafetyCheck to true, the key policy must allow the principal that is making the CreateKey request to make a subsequent PutKeyPolicy request on the CMK. This reduces the risk that the CMK becomes unmanageable. For more information, refer to the scenario in the Default Key Policy (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/key-policies.html#key-policy-default-allow-root-enable-iam) section of the AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide .

  • Each statement in the key policy must contain one or more principals. The principals in the key policy must exist and be visible to AWS KMS. When you create a new AWS principal (for example, an IAM user or role), you might need to enforce a delay before including the new principal in a key policy because the new principal might not be immediately visible to AWS KMS. For more information, see Changes that I make are not always immediately visible (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/troubleshoot_general.html#troubleshoot_general_eventual-consistency) in the AWS Identity and Access Management User Guide.

If you do not provide a key policy, AWS KMS attaches a default key policy to the CMK. For more information, see Default Key Policy (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/key-policies.html#key-policy-default) in the AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide.

The key policy size quota is 32 kilobytes (32768 bytes).

For help writing and formatting a JSON policy document, see the IAM JSON Policy Reference (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/reference_policies.html) in the IAM User Guide .

Tags => ArrayRef[Paws::KMS::Tag]

Assigns one or more tags to the CMK. Use this parameter to tag the CMK when it is created. To tag an existing CMK, use the TagResource operation.

Tagging or untagging a CMK can allow or deny permission to the CMK. For details, see Using ABAC in AWS KMS (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/abac.html) in the AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide.

To use this parameter, you must have kms:TagResource (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/kms-api-permissions-reference.html) permission in an IAM policy.

Each tag consists of a tag key and a tag value. Both the tag key and the tag value are required, but the tag value can be an empty (null) string. You cannot have more than one tag on a CMK with the same tag key. If you specify an existing tag key with a different tag value, AWS KMS replaces the current tag value with the specified one.

When you assign tags to an AWS resource, AWS generates a cost allocation report with usage and costs aggregated by tags. Tags can also be used to control access to a CMK. For details, see Tagging Keys (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/tagging-keys.html).
