#### Configuring Amazon KMS
Amazon KMS can be used to encrypt and decrypt the passphrases that are used for
encrypted RBD images. When a volume is created, a passphrase will be generated,
which will be encrypted by the KMS and stored in the volumes metadata. Upon
attaching the volume to a Pod, the worker node requests the KMS to decrypt the
passphrase, after which it can be used to open the device with `cryptsetup` and
provide access to it for the Pod.
There are a few settings that need to be included in the [KMS configuration
file](../examples/kms/vault/kms-config.yaml):
1. `KMS_PROVIDER`: should be set to `aws-metadata`.
1. `KMS_SECRET_NAME`: name of the Kubernetes Secret (in the Namespace where
Ceph-CSI is deployed) which contains the credentials for communicating with
AWS. This defaults to `ceph-csi-aws-credentials`.
1. `AWS_REGION`: the region where the AWS KMS service is available.
The [Secret with credentials](../examples/kms/vault/aws-credentials.yaml) for
the AWS KMS is expected to contain:
1. `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`: ID of the key to use for encrypting/decrypting
1. `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`: secret for the key to use
1. `AWS_SESSION_TOKEN`: *(optional)* session token, usually empty
1. `AWS_CMK_ARN`: Custom Master Key, ARN for the key used to encrypt the
passphrase
This Secret is expected to be created by the administrator who deployed
Ceph-CSI.
### Encryption prerequisites
In order for encryption to work you need to make sure that `dm-crypt` kernel
