> Key: AMBARI-8734
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-8734
> Project: Ambari
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: ambari-server
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Reporter: Robert Levas
> Assignee: Robert Levas
> Labels: encryption, kdc_credentials, kerberos, security
> Fix For: 2.1.1
>
>
> The current mechanism for obtaining and handling KDC administrator
> credentials is not particularly secure thus allowing any knowledgeable user
> to potentally gain access to them.
> A new mechanism needs to be put in place to security store this data for at
> least the duration of a HTTP session and potentially longer in the event
> Ambari allow for long-term storage of this data.
> Ideally any solution is generic enough to handle secure data of any type.
