Well now, this is good news [of coursepurely dependent upon where your place is within the transaction, and future issues of both key management and governance related challenges] as Box has commenced with provisioning customers with their encryption keys. Gotta admire the transfer of risk in this action, all under the guide of enterprise key management...

'Today, Box says it has a new product that gets the job done. Called “Enterprise Key Management (EKM),” the service puts encryption keys inside a customer’s own data center and in a special security module stored in an Amazon data center. The Box service still must access customer’s data in order to enable sharing and collaboration, but EKM makes sure that only happens when the customer wants it to, Box says.' ArsTechnica's Jon Brodkin
