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

Creating Keystore using Keytool

1. Open Command Prompt (press Win + R and type cmd).
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 jceks <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,
             genseckey is the Generate SecretKey. This is the flag indicating the creation of a synchronous key which will become AES key.          keystore is <Keystore_path> is the location of the Keystore. If the Keystore does not exist, the tool will create a new store. 

             storetype is <store_type> is the type of store, for example, JCE, PK12, JCEKS. Only JCEKS is supported.

             storepass is <Keystore_password> is the password related to the Keystore. 

             keyalg is the algorithm used to create the key, for example, AES, DES.

             keysize is the size of the key.

             alias <alias_name> is the name to be given to the newly created key in which to reference when using the key.

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

   Exit from the Command Prompt.

   The Keystore is generated at the specified location.  

4. Exit from the Command Prompt.

   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	Keystore password
   abpm.security.data.encryption.rest.keyPassword	Key password

5. Click Save to save the changes.

You can encrypt or decrypt the files of a folder repository using Encryption Utility. To encrypt or decrypt, you need to configure the encryption properties in the encryption-info.properties file.

To encrypt or decrypt a folder,:

1. Extract the Encryption_Utility.zip file in the bin folder where Adeptia Suite is installed, for example, C:/Program Files/Adeptia Suite SQL/AdeptiaSuite-6x.6x/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 "\\" (CD:\\Users\\Smith\\Desktop\\encrypt) or forward slash "/" (CD:/Users/Smith/Desktop/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 "\\" (CD:\\Users\\Smith\\Desktop\\encrypt) or forward slash "/" (CD:/Users/Smith/Desktop/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 appears message "Encryption or Decryption has successfully completed" indicates successful encryption or decryption.
