ManageEngine Key Manager Plus is a web-based key management solution that helps users consolidate, control, manage, monitor, and audit the entire life cycle of SSH (Secure Shell) keys and SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificates. It provides visibility into the SSH and SSL environments and helps administrators take total control of the keys to preempt breaches and compliance issues.
Use for most types of cloud SQL services. Excellent modern-day encryption technologies. If a customer wants to manage their keys then Google Cloud Platform is well suited for those people if it matters. Able to divide workloads and pipelines. Customer managed encryption keys support for Data fusion, Data Proc, Cloud SQL, and GKE. We use Cloud EKM: key use operations $0.03 per 10,000 operations for our day to day operations.
The tool is really good for the enterprise having major exposure to public-facing web applications and this can be used to maintain the SSL Certificate Inventory and automated alerts can be set so that SSL Certificates can be renewed before the expiry. Organizations who don't have the visibility of the SSL Certificate deployed across various and then tool can be used to identify the certificates and inventory can be prepared. This tool must be handled by Information Security Team since the private key information is confidential in nature. This tool has the capability to extract the information from various cloud instances including Azure, GCP, and AWS. I will not recommend this tool for organizations that don't have many public-facing apps and for 8 to 10 apps this can be managed manually rather than purchasing this tool.
Overall good product. The solution was able to meet our business case. It is not an expensive product as compared to other key vault solutions. Implementation is an easy and user-friendly console. We got the training on how to use the solution after it was deployed. It is widely used by many organizations. With this solution, we managed to create a centralized SSL Certificates Inventory and other details which were very difficult to extract using the manual search.
Technical Support is good and available 24/7. Licensing Policy is also good and we have taken a yearly subscription model. Integration with Digi Cert is also possible. Secure Solution for management of SSL Certificates Life Cycle. We have not faced any issue with the deployment of the product and not many bugs in the products except some false positives and false negatives ratios.
The UI / UX, first of all, is night and day difference. The main attraction after the services were this: It's user friendly. It welcomes new users and properly guides them on what to do and what you can expect. Honestly, I had a very bad experience with Microsoft Azure in 2018, so I think the Google Cloud Key Management service is best for me for now and I may give the new Azure a try later.
