What is Azure client-side encryption?

Azure supports various encryption models, including server-side encryption that uses service-managed keys, customer-managed keys in Key Vault, or customer-managed keys on customer-controlled hardware. With client-side encryption, you can manage and store keys on-premises or in another secure location.

What are encryption models?

There are two encryption keys based on which different types of encryption work:

  • 1) Symmetric: It works on a single private key, therefore it is faster than asymmetric encryption (explained in detail in the next bullet).
  • 2) Asymmetric: This encryption method works with two keys: one public key and one private key.

Can you intercept an encryption key?

In fact, in some cases, you don’t even have to touch the system directly with your bare hands. You can intercept encryption keys from attached network and video cables as well. Researchers called it a side-channel attack.

Why to encrypt data?
