MinIO generates a Data Encryption Key (DEK) using the |EK|. Specifically,
:minio-git:`MinIO Key Encryption Service (KES) <kes>` requests a new
cryptographic key from the KMS using the |EK| as the "root" key.
KES returns both the plain-text *and* an |EK|-encrypted representation of the
DEK. MinIO stores the encrypted representation as part of the object metadata.
.. end-sse-dek
.. start-sse-kek
MinIO uses a deterministic algorithm to generate a 256-bit unique Key
Encryption Key (KEK). The key-derivation algorithm uses a pseudo-random function
(:ref:`PRF <minio-encryption-sse-primitives>`) that takes the plain-text |DEK|,
a randomly generated initialization vector, and a context consisting of values
like the bucket and object name.
MinIO generates the KEK at the time of each cryptographic encryption or
decryption operation and *never* stores the KEK to a drive.
.. end-sse-kek
.. start-sse-oek
MinIO generates a random 256-bit unique Object Encryption Key (OEK) and uses
that key to encrypt the object. MinIO never stores the plaintext representation
of the OEK on a drive. The plaintext OEK resides in RAM during cryptographic
operations.
