Azure Managed HSM

What Azure Managed HSM is

Azure Managed HSM is a cloud service for managing HSM-backed cryptographic keys through the web. It supports customer-managed keys, key import, automatic key rotation, and audit logs. Both supported key types are available. These features suit teams that need to manage keys in a cloud deployment while retaining customer control and access to activity records. Azure lists a Standard B1 plan for a Managed HSM pool, billed as an hourly usage fee per HSM pool; no price is listed. The service is paid and has no free plan. Its listed platform is web, and its deployment model is cloud. The product page is the place to learn about the service and its plan. When evaluating it, consider whether the listed key-management controls match your needs and whether hourly pool-based billing fits your usage.
