# Key Management System

The **Key Management System (KMS)** in Krutrim Cloud is the central hub for creating and managing cryptographic keys that enable secure access to your resources. It simplifies credential management while ensuring best practices for security and access control.

KMS supports multiple key types for different use cases:

* **SSH Keys** – For secure, password-less access to your virtual machines.
* **API Keys for Model Access** – For calling Krutrim’s model APIs.
* **Bucket API Keys** – For programmatically accessing and managing your storage buckets.

By consolidating these capabilities into one service, Krutrim Cloud enables developers, researchers, and enterprises to securely manage access to their compute, storage, and AI services in a single location.
