- 🔸The Encrypt API only works with < 4KB of data. Larger data requires generating and managing a [data key](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/concepts.html#data-keys) in your application layer.
- 🔸KMS audit events are not available in the [CloudTrail Lookup Events API](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/awscloudtrail/latest/APIReference/API_LookupEvents.html). You need to look find them in the raw .json.gz files that CloudTrail saves in S3.
- 🔸In order to encrypt a multi-part upload to S3, the KMS Key Policy needs to allow “kms:Decrypt” and “kms:GenerateDataKey*” in addition to “kms:Encrypt”, otherwise the upload will fail with an “AccessDenied” error.
- 🔸KMS keys are region specific — they are stored and can only be used in the region in which they are created. They can't be transferred to other regions.
