Encrypt hosted data with a key the client controls through their own cloud key management.

Holding Your Own Encryption Key for Hosted Data | Termgrid Use Case

Termgrid lets clients hold their own encryption key, rather than relying solely on Termgrid's key management.

For firms with strict internal security policies, handing data to any third-party platform typically means trusting that platform's own encryption and key management, without any direct control over the key itself:

Strict policies prohibit third-party key management

Direct security mandate: "We want our key to encrypt our data"

Widespread policy enforcement across enterprise institutions

Firms willingly trade platform feature convenience for key ownership

Prior willingness to disable in-document search to retain key control

Termgrid lets clients hold their own encryption key, rather than relying solely on Termgrid's key management:

01

Client-controlled encryption for all hosted databases and storage

02

Direct integration with the client's preferred cloud KMS

03

Full client autonomy to grant, restrict, or revoke access keys

For firms with strict internal risk and security standards, this isn't about mistrust of any particular vendor, it's about not making an exception to their own consistent policy just because the underlying data happens to already be shared with counterparties elsewhere in the process.

  • Maintains complete client authority independent of the SaaS vendor
  • Ensures seamless compliance with internal key-control security standards
  • Establishes an uncompromising security control point for sensitive data
