Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) Innovations
The transparent data encryption (TDE) team introduced new features focused on customer-managed keys and enhanced protection. Customers can now use AKV (Azure Key Vault) to manage keys, granting ownership and control. TDE secures databases, transaction logs, and tempDB, with options for system-managed or customer-managed keys. The update includes key rotation, allowing for increased security by periodically changing key versions.
