From data residency to key sovereignty: Thales launches UK cloud HSM

Thales introduced a UK version of its Luna Cloud HSM service: cryptographic keys are generated, stored, used, backed up, and destroyed within the UK. The service is available via the Data Protection on Demand marketplace and is not tied to a specific hyperscaler.

• Keys remain fully within UK jurisdiction
• Two UK DPoD instances provide fault tolerance
• Luna HSM has FIPS 140 validation and SOC 2 compliance
• Service supports post-quantum cryptography and eIDAS High
