## Cryptographic primitives in Scaleway Key Manager
Expand All @@ -25,7 +25,7 @@ Scaleway Key Manager uses a **C**ryptographically **S**ecure **P**seudorandom **

This CSPRNG is based on the ChaCha-based pseudorandom number generator provided by modern Linux kernels. It is seeded with high-entropy, unpredictable sources, such as:

- Timing variations from hardware events
- Timing variations from hardware events
- True Random Number Generators (TRNGs), including the `RDSEED` and `RDRAND` instructions available on AMD64 processors

While Key Manager internally uses AES-256-GCM, this does not restrict users to the same algorithm for their data encryption keys (DEKs).
We recommend using cryptographic libraries like Tink, which handle DEK management with robust and reviewed algorithms.
Scaleway provides Tink integrations for Go and Python, which is the preferred integration method.
