(A company uses KMS for key management.

Enabling automatic key rotation in AWS Key Management Service (KMS) is the least effort solution to ensure cryptographic material is not used longer than a year. KMS automatically rotates the cryptographic material of symmetric customer master keys (CMKs) every 365 days, meeting the requirement without manual intervention. The WGU Cloud Deployment and Operations Study Guide (Section 6.3, KMS) states, "Automatic key rotation in KMS rotates the backing key material every year for symmetric CMKs, providing a low-effort way to comply with key usage limits." Moving to CloudHSM, custom protocols, or Lambda functions require more effort and complexity.
