How does your company manage its encryption keys?  ↦

This was a great question asked this week on Hacker News – 232 comments and counting…

We just had an interesting data loss at work, that was due to data being encrypted at rest. We somehow managed to delete the encryption keys (still figuring out how), which became an obvious problem once our main database instance was rebooted.

Luckily we were able to restore the data, but now I (we) really want to learn what a proper setup would look like.
