The encryption configuration to associate with the repository creation template.

Contents

encryptionType

The encryption type to use.

If you use the KMS encryption type, the contents of the repository will be encrypted using server-side encryption with AWS Key Management Service key stored in AWS KMS. When you use AWS KMS to encrypt your data, you can either use the default AWS managed AWS KMS key for Amazon ECR, or specify your own AWS KMS key, which you already created. For more information, see Protecting data using server-side encryption with an AWS KMS key stored in AWS Key Management Service (SSE-KMS) in the Amazon Simple Storage Service Console Developer Guide.

If you use the AES256 encryption type, Amazon ECR uses server-side encryption with Amazon S3-managed encryption keys which encrypts the images in the repository using an AES256 encryption algorithm. For more information, see Protecting data using server-side encryption with Amazon S3-managed encryption keys (SSE-S3) in the Amazon Simple Storage Service Console Developer Guide.
