Key benefits:

• Enhanced Data Security: Customers control key lifecycle (creation, rotation, revocation), improving data protection.
• PCI DSS Compliance: Addresses PCI DSS Requirement 3 for protecting stored cardholder data.
• Operational Control: Provides greater control and visibility over data encryption strategy.
• Data Revocation Capability: Enables immediate data access revocation by disabling the encryption key in Azure Key Vault.

This functionality is critical for organizations handling sensitive data and seeking PCI DSS compliance on the Azure Advanced Tier of CockroachDB Cloud.
