An optional but important component in Code Signing Architecture is Time Stamp Authority (TSA). Time stamping preserves the source time when the code was signed and allows software to be accepted by the OS and other client device platforms even after the certificate expires. Signed software is validated with the source time when the certificate was signed rather than the current time.

Code Signing plays an important role as it can identify legitimate software compared to malware or rogue code. In technical terms, Code Signing creates a hash of the code and encrypts it with a private key adding its signature. During execution this signature is validated and if the hash matches, it gives assurance that the code has not been modified. It also establishes assurance that the code is issued from the legitimate author that it is claiming to be.

A PKI is a setup that provides digital certificates to end-users, systems, devices, and applications to provide them with trusted identities. These identities are used for authentication of the certificate holder, as well as for establishing secure communications to other certificate holders within the network. A PKI infrastructure is based upon asymmetric key cryptography utilizing a public key and private key pair associated with a digital certificate issued by an Issuing Certificate Authority (CA).

Google Cloud HSM is a cluster of FIPS 140-2 Level 3 certified Hardware Security Modules which allow customers to host encryption keys and perform cryptographic operations on it. Although Cloud HSM is very similar to most network HSMs, Google’s implementation to bring HSM to the cloud did require some changes to be made

KMS, IAM, and DLP can also be integrated with Google Cloud Functions to encrypt data when uploaded to Google Cloud Storage automatically. Google Cloud Dataflow can use DLP and KMS to encrypt data automatically from several different storage locations. This shows how users can create their own, potentially more robust data encryption methods to assist in the storage of sensitive data on the Cloud.

In this article, we will take a closer look at Google’s Cloud Key Management Services. When users store data into Google Cloud, the data is automatically encrypted at rest. We use Google’s Cloud Key Management service to gain better control over managing the encrypted data-at-rest and encryption keys.
