You can encrypt data on the newly created file systems if needed.

Keys used by encrypted file systems are provided by the Key Management Service (KMS), which is secure and convenient. You do not need to establish and maintain the key management infrastructure. If you want to use your own key material, use the key import function on the KMS console to create a custom key whose key material is empty and import the key material to the custom key. For details, see Importing Key Materials in the Key Management Service User Guide.

You can directly use the encryption function when creating SFS Turbo file systems. No authorization is required.

Encryption Key

An SFS Turbo file system does not have a default key. You can use your existing key or create a new key. For details, see section "Creating a Custom Key" in the Data Encryption Workshop User Guide.
