Create Asymmetric Key Pairs

You can use KMS to create asymmetric key pairs to encrypt and decrypt data.

About this task

When you need to encrypt and decrypt data using asymmetric keys and do not want to save the private key locally, you can use Asymmetric Key Management. You can use KMS to create asymmetric key pairs, update asymmetric key pairs, schedule key pair deletion and cancel key pair deletion.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Key Management Service Console .
  2. In the left navigation pane, click Password Safe > Asymmetric Key Management.
  3. On the Asymmetric Key Management page, click +Create KeyChain in the upper-right corner of the page.
  4. On the Create KeyChain page, configure the key pair by completing the following information.
    • Chinese Name: Chinese name for the key pair.
    • English Name: English name for the key pair.
    • Algorithm Type: Select the asymmetric key pair encryption algorithm you need. Currently, KMS supports RSA and SM2 asymmetric encryption algorithms.
    • Encryption Method: Select the asymmetric key pair encryption algorithm you need. Currently, KMS supports RSA and SM2 asymmetric encryption algorithms.
    • Selected Zone: Select the region where you create the key pair.
    • KeyChain Description: Description for the key pair.
  5. Click Confirm.
