Abstract
A computer-implemented method includes receiving, by a storage system, encrypted data and a set of key identifiers. Each key identifier is associated with information specifying a storage location for which the key identifier is authorized. The method also includes storing, by the storage system, the encrypted data in at least one storage location and receiving, by the storage system, at least one key identifier of the set of key identifiers with a data access request. The method includes determining, by the storage system, whether the data access request is authorized for the at least one key identifier.
