stack updated HBASE-13506: -------------------------- Fix Version/s: (was: 2.0.0) > AES-GCM cipher support where available > -------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-13506 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-13506 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: encryption, security > Reporter: Andrew Purtell > Priority: Major > > The initial encryption drop only had AES-CTR support because authenticated > modes such as GCM are only available in Java 7 and up, and our trunk at the > time was targeted at Java 6. However we can optionally use AES-GCM cipher > support where available. For HBase 1.0 and up, Java 7 is now the minimum so > use of AES-GCM can go in directly. It's probably possible to add support in > 0.98 too using reflection for cipher object initialization. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
