When the Process Flow executes, all the temporary files are stored in the repository folder. For security reasons, you may want to secure your repository folder from an unauthorized access. Adeptia facilitates you to secure your repository by encrypting the data at rest. With this feature, your repository gets stored in an encrypted form.

...

1. Open Command Prompt.
2. Go to the directory where JRE is installed (for example, C:/Program Files/Java/jre8/bin).

3. Run the following Keytool command to create a Keystore.

   For Windows:

   keytool.exe -genseckey -keystore <Keystore_path> -storetype <store_type> -storepass <Keystore_password> -keyalg AES -keysize 256 -alias <alias_name> -keypass <Key_password>

   For Linux:

   keytool -genseckey -keystore <Keystore_path> -storetype <store_type> -storepass <Keystore_password> -keyalg AES -keysize 256 -alias <alias_name> -keypass <Key_password>

   where,
             <Keystore_path> is the location of the Keystore. If the Keystore does not exist, the tool will create a new store. 

             <store_type> is the type of store. Only JCEKS is supported.

             <Keystore_password> is the password related to the Keystore. 

             <alias_name> is the name to be given to the newly created key.

             <Key_password> is the password protecting the use of the key.  

   The Keystore is generated at the specified location.  

4. Exit from the Command Prompt.

...

1. Login to Adeptia Suite as an administrator.
2. Go to Administer > Setup > Application Settings > Update System Properties.
3. Expand Systems > Data Encryption at rest.

4. Set the value in the below parameters:

   Property Name	Description
   abpm.security.data.encryption.rest.enable	To enable or disable data encryption at rest. The possible value can be Yes or No.
   abpm.security.data.encryption.rest.keystoreLocation	Location of the Keystore that will be used for data encryption.
   abpm.security.data.encryption.rest.alias	Alias name for the key.
   abpm.security.data.encryption.rest.keystorePasword	Password of the Keystore password.
   abpm.security.data.encryption.rest.keyPassword	Password of the Key password.

5. Click Save to save the changes.
6. Click Reload Configuration to reflect the changes.
7. Restart Kernel and WebRunner.
   
   

Before enabling Encrypting data at rest feature, it is advisable to run the Encryption utility to encrypt the existing records present in the repository. If you do not encrypt the data then you will find the data in the repository in the plain text creating hindrance in the encrypted data and plain text. If you want to encrypt the existing records present in the Process Flow repository (in plain text) then do the following:

...

1. Extract the Encryption_Utility.zip file in the bin folder where Adeptia Suite is installed, for example, C:/Program Files/Adeptia Suite/AdeptiaSuite-x.x/bin/Encryption_utility.
2. Open the extracted folder.
3. Open encryption-info.properties file in any Text Editor.

4. Provide the values for the following properties.

   Property Name	Description
   encryption.repository.path	Path of the folder to encrypt or decrypt. If you are using the utility in the Windows environment, separate the path by either using a backward slash "\\" (D:\\Smith\\encrypt) or forward slash "/" (D:/Smith/encrypt).
   encryption.keystore.location	Keystore location. If you are using the utility in the Windows environment, separate the path by either using a backward slash "\\" (D:\\Smith\\encrypt) or forward slash "/" (D:/Smith/encrypt).
   encryption.keystore.alias	Alias name for the Keystore.
   encryption.key.password	Password of the key.
   encryption.keystore.password	Password of the Keystore.

   

    

5. Save the file.
6. Go to the extracted folder. 
7. For Windows, double-click encrypt.bat.
   For Linux, execute encrypt.sh on the Terminal.
   The utility starts running.
8. To encrypt the folder, press 1.
   To decrypt the folder, press 2.
   
   
   
   

9. The utility starts encrypting or decrypting the folder. A message "Encryption or Decryption has successfully completed" indicates successful encryption or decryption.
