Abstract
A computing device can securely and selectively enable a remote computing device to decrypt encrypted data that is stored remotely (e.g., within a cloud-computing environment). For example, the computing device can transmit an encrypted communication to a processing device of the remote computing device. The encrypted communication can include a first key for decrypting the encrypted data. The processing device can receive the encrypted communication and use a second key that is stored in an internal memory of the processing device to decrypt the encrypted communication. The processing device can extract the first key from the decrypted version of the encrypted communication. The processing device can then use the first key to decrypt the encrypted data.
