Summary: Transparent data at rest encryption Key: HDFS-6134 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6134 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: New Feature Components: security Affects Versions: 2.3.0 Reporter: Alejandro Abdelnur Assignee: Alejandro Abdelnur Because of privacy and security regulations, for many industries, sensitive data at rest must be in encrypted form. For example: the healthÂcare industry (HIPAA regulations), the card payment industry (PCI DSS regulations) or the US government (FISMA regulations). This JIRA aims to provide a mechanism to encrypt HDFS data at rest that can be used transparently by any application accessing HDFS via Hadoop Filesystem Java API, Hadoop libhdfs C library, or WebHDFS REST API. The resulting implementation should be able to be used in compliance with different regulation requirements. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
