AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) recently launched a new cryptographic capability allowing customers to generate and verify HMACs (hash-based message authentication code). In this episode Nicki is joined by Matthew Campagna (Sr. Principal Security Engineer, AWS) and Jeremy Stieglitz (Principal Product Manager, AWS) to discuss this foundational cryptographic building block. This new API allows you to generate and verify HMACs using secret keys that never leave the security boundary of KMS’s FIPS 140 certified HSMs. Learn more - https://go.aws/3vHNYBl What’s New posts - https://go.aws/3P9bP4S Read the blog - https://go.aws/3vJ1wwF Documentation link - https://go.aws/3vFxLwB Please note that in preparation for this launch, we recorded this episode when Nicki was still co-hosting the podcast.
