Encrypting Archived Data Using a Key from your own KMS

    After logging in to KMS, create a new customer managed key. You need to match the Own instance region, based on the AWS Region Table as shown below . Create a key and provide an alias for Own. If relevant, grant administrative access to additional users in your company. By selecting the “Other AWS Account”, you provide usage access to Own. It is important to look over your settings before finalizing the key.

    The Archive Account number is: 284606693368​

    For each region Own maintains two accounts. One for application access and one for data replications. You must grant access to both accounts.
