Policy: AWS > Well-Architected Tool > AWS Well-Architected Framework > Security > SEC 08. How do you protect your data at rest? > Implement secure key management

Encryption keys must be stored securely, with strict access control, for example, by using a key management service such as AWS KMS. Consider using different keys, and access control to the keys, combined with the AWS IAM and resource policies, to align with data classification levels and segregation requirements.

See Implement secure key management for more information.
