In KMS, the aws/s3 key is located in AWS managed keys menu.

Please ensure your are in the correct region where you created the S3 bucket. KMS Keys are regional resources.

Thanks for your answer, I did make sure I am in the correct region and the weird thing is... I have other account and created S3 bucket too,, I can find a AWS managed key in KMS for that account... but not for this account

Attached some screenshot to make it a little clear..

To give more background,

I have two account A and B and created a S3 bucket for each A and B.

I selected SSE-SE encryption method for both.

I uploaded a file for both S3 buckets.

In KMS, I can find AWS managed key for S3 (aws/s3) in Account A but not for the Account B

This is a normal situation?

Hi Joseph,

Everything is explained there: what you can view and do with AWS managed keys in particular

Best,

Didier
