Definition

The term, in context

AI-assisted draft · approved dataset

Google Cloud KMS quantum-safe KEMs add post-quantum key encapsulation mechanisms to the managed key service, so a caller can have a service-protected key wrap and unwrap secrets using post-quantum encapsulation instead of classical public-key encryption. The private key material stays inside the service's protection boundary and is reached through the same key hierarchy, permissions, and audit logging as its classical algorithms.
