Alejandro Abdelnur commented on HDFS-6134: ------------------------------------------ Larry, if the httpfs admin is a different person than the hdfs admin you don't have the problem. > 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: 3.0.0, 2.3.0 > Reporter: Alejandro Abdelnur > Assignee: Charles Lamb > Attachments: HDFS-6134.001.patch, HDFS-6134.002.patch, > HDFS-6134_test_plan.pdf, HDFSDataatRestEncryption.pdf, > HDFSDataatRestEncryptionProposal_obsolete.pdf, > HDFSEncryptionConceptualDesignProposal-2014-06-20.pdf > > > 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)
