Keynexus

KeyNexus was an enterprise encryption key management company based in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, providing centralized key management, Bring Your Own Key (BYOK), and Key Management as a Service for cloud, on-premises, and hybrid deployments. Its platform helped enterprises generate, store, distribute, and control the lifecycle of encryption keys used to protect data across applications and infrastructure. KeyNexus was acquired by StorMagic in January 2021, and its technology was folded into the StorMagic SvKMS (Secure Virtual Key Management Service) product; the keynexus.com domain now redirects to StorMagic's encryption key management offering. This profile was surfaced as a portfolio company of Uncork Capital and added to the API Evangelist network for tracking. KeyNexus no longer operates as an independent developer platform.
