# CMEK on Cloud Storage and Compute Engine via centralized Cloud KMS
This sample creates a sample [Cloud KMS](https://cloud.google.com/kms?hl=it) configuration to be used with [Cloud Storage](https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/encryption/using-customer-managed-keys) and [Copute Engine](https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/customer-managed-encryption).
Cloud KMS is deployed in a separate project to highlight the IAM binding needed and to mock a more real scenario where you usually have a project to manage keys across all your projects in one single place.
The sample has been purposefully kept simple so that it can be used as a basis for different and more complex configuration. This is the high level diagram:

## Managed resources and services
This sample creates several distinct groups of resources:
- projects
- Cloud KMS project
- Service Project configured for GCE instances and GCS buckets
- networking
- VPC network
- One subnet
- Firewall rules for [SSH access via IAP](https://cloud.google.com/iap/docs/using-tcp-forwarding) and open communication within the VPC
- IAM
- One service account for the GGE instance
- KMS
- One key ring
- One crypto key (Procection level: softwere) for Cloud Engine
- One crypto key (Protection level: softwere) for Cloud Storage
- GCE
- One instance encrypted with a CMEK Cryptokey hosted in Cloud KMS
- GCS
- One bucket encrypted with a CMEK Cryptokey hosted in Cloud KMS
