Upload your wrapped symmetric data encryption key to your instance to begin using it work encryption.

## Vorbereitungen

Role required: sn_kmf.admin or sn_kmf.cryptographic_manager

## Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

Hinweis:  
If you don't want to supply your own key, you can use the steps in [Configure Field Encryption modules](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/KgQtmTCEjA1_hC9IWbpg9A "Learn how to configure Field Encryption modules.") to use a ServiceNow. You cannot revoke a customer supplied key.

## Prozedur

1. Navigate to AllSystem SecurityField EncryptionField Encryption Experience.
2. Select View module details from the Field Encryption modules overview to open the field encryption module that you've previously created.  
   Hinweis:  
   If you haven't created a field encryption module yet, you can create one using the steps in [Configure Field Encryption modules](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/KgQtmTCEjA1_hC9IWbpg9A "Learn how to configure Field Encryption modules.").
3. In the Cryptographic Specification section, select Manage Specification Settings.
4. Select the Next button until you reach the Key Origin section.
5. Verify that the Origin field has a value of Upload customer supplied key.  
   If it doesn't, and you can't choose that value, please refer to steps 3--5 in [Configure Customer-supplied keys for Field Encryption Enterprise](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/GY0Ufu_m8ZsV2CFOha7sJQ "Bring your own data encryption key to the platform instead of using the one that ServiceNow generates.").
6. Confirm that you have a value in the Key Alias field.
7. Select Next.
8. Select the Upload customer supplied key link.  
   This link should appear underneath the Download wrapping key link that you selected as part of wrapping your key.
9. Select Browse, and select two files:  
   1. The wrapped_key_material file
   2. The "import token" file
   {#upload-your-customer-supplied-key__ol_xbf_ybl_f2c}
10. Select OK.

## Ergebnisse

A confirmation message displays a successful upload of the customer-supplied key. The key is also listed in the Module Keys related list with an Origin of
<kbd class="ph userinput">customer-supplied key</kbd>.

Now that your encryption key is configured, you can begin to specify which fields and attachments are encrypted. For details, see [Configure encrypted field configurations for fields or attachments](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/Vfqc~ad_5QAedPgWtXd6jg "Create an encrypted field configuration to specify which fields are encrypted on a table, and whether that table's attachments are encrypted.").
