AWS Certified Solutions Architect study material · question 57 of 500
After automatic rotation replaces a customer managed key's material, what happens to data encrypted before the rotation?
Show the answer
Answer: D. It still decrypts, because KMS selects the material that encrypted it
Rotation changes only the current material. KMS picks the right material for each ciphertext, so applications need no code change.
