Abstract
Presented herein are techniques for synchronizing a cloud service and a key management service via a single indirect synchronous message sent by a client device. In particular, a cloud service receives a service request message sent by a client device. Embedded into the service request message is an encrypted key management message. The cloud service is configured to extract the encrypted key management message from the service request message and then send the encrypted key management message to the key management service.
