Previously relying on AWS-owned keys, Amazon Managed Grafana now enables users to encrypt workspace data with their own keys managed through AWS Key Management Service. This provides organizations greater control over data encryption, aiding compliance with regulatory requirements.

The feature is broadly available across AWS regions, excluding AWS GovCloud (US), and integrates with existing Amazon Managed Grafana capabilities. Customers can choose this option when creating workspaces for a tailored security posture in data visualization and analysis workflows.
