To provide a high level of security, {% data variables.product.product_name %} encrypts your data while at rest in the data centers and while your data is in transit between users' machines and the data centers.

For encryption in transit, {% data variables.product.product_name %} uses Transport Layer Security (TLS). For encryption at rest, {% data variables.product.product_name %} provides a default RSA key. After you've initialized your enterprise, you can choose to provide your own key instead. Your key should be a 2048 bit RSA private key in PEM format.

The key that you provide is stored in a FIPS 140-2 compliant hardware security module (HSM) in a key vault that {% data variables.product.company_short %} manages.

To configure your encryption key, use the REST API. There are a number of API endpoints, for example to check the status of encryption, update your encryption key, and disable your encryption key. Note that disabling your key will freeze your enterprise. For more information about the API endpoints, see "[Encryption at rest](/rest/reference/enterprise-admin#encryption-at-rest)" in the REST API documentation.

### Adding or updating an encryption key
26

You can add a new encryption key as often as you need. When you add a new key, the old key is discarded. Your enterprise won't experience downtime when you update the key.

Your 2048 bit RSA private key should be in PEM format, for example in a file called _private-key.pem_.

```

-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

1. To add your key, use the `PATCH /enterprise/encryption` endpoint, replacing *~/private-key.pem* with the path to your private key.
2. Optionally, check the status of the delete operation. It takes approximately ten minutes to disable encryption at rest.
