----------------------------
Summary: To add kafka data at rest encryption
Key: KAFKA-8170
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8170
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: log
Reporter: Akash
Kafka have mechanism for wire encryption of data.
But the kafka data at rest which exist in <log.dir>/<topic-name>-<partition> is
still unencrypted.
This directories now have log files with actual messages embedded metadata, but
unauthorised user can still recover messages from this files
Addiding encryption for this data would be valuable for preventing message
protection from disk theft, unauthorised user access on servers.
