Pros
Pro Extremely secure
Amazon has used a lot of techniques to harden the process of storing and securing keys in its service. For example, keys are not stored on disk, nor are they allowed to persist in memory.
Amazon employees can not access a user's secret keys physically and the keys themselves are stored in the same geographical region as the application they belong to.
Pro Easy to use from a single dashboard
