The Key management system provides the key generation, distribution, verification and revocation service for each virtual machine in cloud computing, which is the basis of ensuring the information security of cloud providers and users. Aiming at the lack of a complete key management scheme in cloud computing environment, this paper analyzes the special security requirements of cloud computing environment Key Management, and establishes the cloud Key management framework based on XML (extensible Markup Language) Key Management specification. First, the cloud computing Key management architecture and the functions of each part of the module are designed, secondly, the work mode based on the trust domain is put forward, finally, the performance and security of the system are analyzed, and the corresponding solutions are put forward.
