Data Encryption Utilities

To configure data encryption for the

MDM Hub

, you can use the data encryption utilities available in the

Resource Kit

The following data encryption samples and utilities are included in the

Resource Kit

Data Encryption Libraries: The data encryption libraries are required by the
MDM Hub
to be bundled in the data encryption JAR file. The data encryption libraries contain APIs and common classes. In particular, it includes the DataEncryptor interface that you must implement when you configure data encryption. The DataEncryptor interface defines the
encrypt
and
decrypt
methods that you need to implement for data encryption in the
MDM Hub
.
Sample of Data Encryption Properties File: The sample data encryption properties file includes parameters that the data encryption implementation requires. The name of the properties file is
dataencryption.properties
. You can customize the sample properties file to specify the options for the data encryption implementation.
Sample DataEncryption Interface Implementation: The sample DataEncryption interface implementation uses the InformaticaDataEncryptor class to implement the DataEncryptor interface. Refer to the sample implementation to create a custom encryption algorithm. The mainClass property in the data encryption properties file must refer to the class name that you use in the interface implementation.
Ant Build Script: The Ant build script,
build.xml
, to create the data encryption JAR file.
