Benoy Antony updated MAPREDUCE-4491: ------------------------------------ Attachment: Hadoop_Encryption.pdf > Encryption and Key Protection > ----------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-4491 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4491 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: documentation, security, task-controller, tasktracker > Reporter: Benoy Antony > Assignee: Benoy Antony > Attachments: Hadoop_Encryption.pdf > > > When dealing with sensitive data, it is required to keep the data encrypted > wherever it is stored. Common use case is to pull encrypted data out of a > datasource and store in HDFS for analysis. The keys are stored in an external > keystore. > The feature adds a customizable framework to integrate different types of > keystores, support for Java KeyStore, read keys from keystores, and transport > keys from JobClient to Tasks. > The feature adds PGP encryption as codec and additional utilities to perform > encryption related steps. > The design document is attached. It explains the requirement, design and use > cases. > Kindly review and comment. Collaboration is very much welcome. > I have a tested patch for this for 1.1 and will upload it soon as an initial > work for further refinement. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
