Minio uses a key-management-system (KMS) to support SSE-S3. If a client requests SSE-S3 or auto-encryption Minio uses a key-management-system (KMS) to support SSE-S3. If a client requests SSE-S3, or auto-encryption

Minio supports two different KMS concepts: Minio supports two different KMS concepts:
