Sure, here are the step-by-step instructions to remediate the KMS Encryption Keys Rotation issue in GCP using the GCP console:

  1. Open the Google Cloud Console and select the project in which the KMS key is created.
  2. In the left navigation menu, click on the “Security” option and select “Encryption keys” from the drop-down menu.
  3. Select the KMS key for which you want to enable rotation.
  4. Click on the “Edit” button at the top of the page.
  5. In the “Edit key” dialog box, scroll down to the “Rotation” section.
  6. Toggle the switch for “Automatic key rotation” to “On”.
  7. Set the “Rotation period” to a desired value. It is recommended to rotate the key once a year.
  8. Click on the “Save” button to save the changes.

After completing these steps, the KMS key rotation will be enabled, and the key will be automatically rotated based on the rotation period set by you. This will help to ensure that your encryption keys are updated and secure.
