az keyvault key backup

Edit

Request that a backup of the specified key be downloaded to the client.

The Key Backup operation exports a key from Vault or HSM in a protected form. Note that this operation does NOT return key material in a form that can be used outside the Vault or HSM system, the returned key material is either protected to a HSM or to Vault itself. The intent of this operation is to allow a client to GENERATE a key in one Vault or HSM instance, BACKUP the key, and then RESTORE it into another Vault or HSM instance. The BACKUP operation may be used to export, in protected form, any key type from Vault or HSM. Individual versions of a key cannot be backed up. BACKUP / RESTORE can be performed within geographical boundaries only; meaning that a BACKUP from one geographical area cannot be restored to another geographical area. For example, a backup from the US geographical area cannot be restored in an EU geographical area. This operation requires the key/backup permission.

az keyvault key backup --file
                       [--hsm-name]
                       [--id]

az keyvault key decrypt

Edit
Preview

This command is in preview and under development. Reference and support levels: https://aka.ms/CLI_refstatus

Decrypt a single block of encrypted data.

The DECRYPT operation decrypts a well-formed block of ciphertext using the target encryption key and specified algorithm. This operation is the reverse of the ENCRYPT operation; only a single block of data may be decrypted, the size of this block is dependent on the target key and the algorithm to be used. The DECRYPT operation applies to asymmetric and symmetric keys stored in Vault or HSM since it uses the private portion of the key. This operation requires the keys/decrypt permission.

az keyvault key decrypt --algorithm {A128CBC, A128CBCPAD, A128GCM, A192CBC, A192CBCPAD, A192GCM, A256CBC, A256CBCPAD, A256GCM, RSA-OAEP, RSA-OAEP-256, RSA1_5}

az keyvault key encrypt

Edit
Preview

This command is in preview and under development. Reference and support levels: https://aka.ms/CLI_refstatus

Encrypt an arbitrary sequence of bytes using an encryption key that is stored in a Vault or HSM.

The ENCRYPT operation encrypts an arbitrary sequence of bytes using an encryption key that is stored in Vault or HSM. Note that the ENCRYPT operation only supports a single block of data, the size of which is dependent on the target key and the encryption algorithm to be used. The ENCRYPT operation is only strictly necessary for symmetric keys stored in Vault pr HSM since protection with an asymmetric key can be performed using public portion of the key. This operation is supported for asymmetric keys as a convenience for callers that have a key-reference but do not have access to the public key material. This operation requires the keys/encrypt permission.

az keyvault key encrypt --algorithm {A128CBC, A128CBCPAD, A128GCM, A192CBC, A192CBCPAD, A192GCM, A256CBC, A256CBCPAD, A256GCM, RSA-OAEP, RSA-OAEP-256, RSA1_5}

az keyvault key restore

Edit

Restore a backed up key to a Vault or HSM.

Import a previously backed up key into Vault or HSM, restoring the key, its key identifier, attributes and access control policies. The RESTORE operation may be used to import a previously backed up key. Individual versions of a key cannot be restored. The key is restored in its entirety with the same key name as it had when it was backed up. If the key name is not available in the target Key Vault, the RESTORE operation will be rejected. While the key name is retained during restore, the final key identifier will change if the key is restored to a different Vault or HSM. Restore will restore all versions and preserve version identifiers. The RESTORE operation is subject to security constraints. The target Vault or HSM must be owned by the same Microsoft Azure Subscription as the source Vault or HSM. The user must have RESTORE permission in the target Vault or HSM. This operation requires the keys/restore permission.
