- If you want to learn more about KES and how a KES server works then you may want to checkout our Concepts overview.
In general, KES is a tool for managing and distributing cryptographic keys in large and distributed systems. It decouples applications from central key-management systems to make key-management scalable again.
KES,

- as a minimal and use-case specific system, is very easy to configure and manage.
- as open source project, relies only on common web technologies and is designed to be secure-by-default.
