Create and maintain Key Management components to customize and manage how cryptographic operations are performed on your ServiceNow instance.
* **[Assign Key Management Framework roles](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/iaaL8hG11QPsfrvCjci6Iw)**   
  Administrators with the security_admin role can assign Key Management Framework (KMF) admins, who in turn can assign other Key Management Framework roles.
* **[Configure field encryption settings to select key type](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/ovSySxDFj9lpVnXICaHrDw)**   
  Configure your field encryption settings to use ServiceNow supplied keys or your own customer-supplied keys (CSK) for encryption on the ServiceNow AI Platform.
* **[Create a cryptographic module](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/Jy8yosmnoD7W9psp60zV_A)**   
  Create a cryptographic module to define the mechanisms used for cryptographic operations. After you create the module, you create a cryptographic specification, where you define an algorithm for encryption and generates a key.
* **[Create a module access policy](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/b5Fi_fL46STNIHpPr4rI2Q)**   
  Create module access policies to decide which users and scripts can access data encrypted by a cryptographic module.
* **[Create a cryptographic module life-cycle policy](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/cBy3xfn06F9I2qiXi63Nlg)**   
  Create a cryptographic module life-cycle policy to place limits on cryptographic modules, such as how long the key is good for. Create policies to safeguard cryptographic modules by limiting their exposure.
