> (Security) Allow netty SASL to support encryption/decryption
> ------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: STORM-430
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-430
> Project: Apache Storm
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Robert Joseph Evans
> Assignee: Raghavendra Nandagopal

>
> SASL provides more then just authentication, it can also provide integraty
> guarantees.
> as described here
> http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/javax/security/sasl/Sasl.html#QOP
> and
> http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/security/sasl/sasl-refguide.html
> In order to provide those guarantees encryption is used, and the wrap/unwrap
> methods for the SaslClient and Server must be used. It would be great to
> support this for storm as well, allowing users to configure the level of
> security they want.
