## Confidential storage
|

|
||||
Most cloud storage solutions support encryption, such as [GCE Persistent Disks (PD)](https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/how-to/using-cmek).

Constellation supports the available CSI-based storage options for Kubernetes engines in Azure and GCP.
|
||||
Constellation supports the available CSI-based storage options for Kubernetes engines in AWS, Azure, and GCP.
|
||||
However, their encryption takes place in the storage backend and is managed by the CSP.
|
||||
Thus, using the default CSI drivers for these storage types means trusting the CSP with your persistent data.
|
||||
|
||||
To address this, Constellation provides CSI drivers for Azure Disk and GCE PD, offering [encryption on the node level](../architecture/keys.md#storage-encryption). They enable transparent encryption for persistent volumes without needing to trust the cloud backend. Plaintext data never leaves the confidential VM context, offering you confidential storage.

|

The default storage class is set to `encrypted-rwo` for performance reasons.
|
||||
If you want integrity-protected storage, set the `storageClassName` parameter of your persistent volume claim to `integrity-encrypted-rwo`.
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, you can create your own storage class with integrity protection enabled by adding `csi.storage.k8s.io/fstype: ext4-integrity` to the class `parameters`.
|
||||
Or use another filesystem by specifying another file system type with the suffix `-integrity`, e.g., `csi.storage.k8s.io/fstype: xfs-integrity`.
