- Fortanix Data Security Manager
Best for: Enterprises with keys in several clouds and data centers
It is here because one console applies the same key policies on premises and in the cloud, with keys kept on HSMs. It fits large enterprises with keys spread across several clouds and data centers. Since it also covers tokenization and secrets, decide early whether you want it to replace other products or only manage keys.

- Thales CipherTrust Manager
Best for: Large companies managing keys across data centers and clouds
It earns its place as a central key manager for large estates, because it covers the full key life cycle and runs both on premises and in every major cloud. It fits mid-sized and large companies that need HSM-backed key storage and database encryption. It is one part of a wider data security platform, so be clear which parts you are buying now.
