# KMS IAM/Config Encryption

MinIO supports encrypting config, IAM assets with KMS provided keys. If the KMS is not enabled, MinIO will store the config, IAM data as plain text erasure coded in its backend.

## MinIO KMS Quick Start

MinIO supports two ways of encrypting IAM and configuration data.
You can either use KES - together with an external KMS - or, much simpler,

          sudo sysctl net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6=0
          go run docs/iam/access-manager-plugin.go &
          make test-iam
      - name: Test MinIO Old Version data to IAM import current version
        if: matrix.ldap == 'ldaphost:389'
        env:
          _MINIO_LDAP_TEST_SERVER: ${{ matrix.ldap }}
        run: |
          make test-iam-ldap-upgrade-import
      - name: Test LDAP for automatic site replication

		sameTarget            bool
	}{
		{ // 1 Invalid delete marker status in replication config

	EnvKESEndpoint         = "MINIO_KMS_KES_ENDPOINT"       // One or multiple KES endpoints, separated by ','
	EnvKESKeyName          = "MINIO_KMS_KES_KEY_NAME"       // The default key name used for IAM data and when no key ID is specified on a bucket
	EnvKESAPIKey           = "MINIO_KMS_KES_API_KEY"        // Access credential for KES - API keys and private key / certificate are mutually exclusive

//
// Reference: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-arns-and-namespaces.html

const (
	arnPrefixArn        = "arn"
	arnPartitionMinio   = "minio"
	arnServiceIAM       = "iam"
	arnResourceTypeRole = "role"
)

// ARN - representation of resources based on AWS ARNs.
type ARN struct {
	Partition    string
	Service      string
	Region       string
	ResourceType string

- The user can now use these credentials to make requests to the MinIO server.

| *Valid Range* | *Minimum value of 900. Maximum value of 31536000.* |
| *Required*    | *No*                                               |

### Policy

	"github.com/minio/pkg/v2/env"
)

const (
	testDefaultTimeout = 30 * time.Second
)

// API suite container for IAM
type TestSuiteIAM struct {
	TestSuiteCommon

	ServerTypeDescription string

	// Flag to turn on tests for etcd backend IAM
	withEtcdBackend bool

	endpoint string
	adm      *madmin.AdminClient
	client   *minio.Client
}

- Simpler implementation than [AWS S3 Bucket Replication Config](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/replication-add-config.html) with requirements such as IAM Role, AccessControlTranslation, Metrics and SourceSelectionCriteria are not needed with MinIO.
- Active-Active replication
- Multi destination replication
