Ciao mj,
well if the question is if it possible to decrypt a geotiff on the fly
using the actual GeoTiffReader (2.3.x and above) the answer is yeah
(ok, I have to check but I am pretty positive :-) ). You would have to
create your own ImageInputStream outside the reader  using a
CypherInputStream.

However the point here is not the GeoTiffReader but how ImageIO
manages stream. It has its own stack of streams implementing the
ImageInputStream interface, hence the best thing to do would be
writing a dedicate ImageInputStream that uses the decorator
pattern (much like FilterInputStream) to decrypt the image on the fly
with highest performances. Once we are there we could even do the
converse that is writing an ImageOutputStream that does the opposite.
If you are interested we can find a way to implement this pretty
quickly.


Regards,
Simone.
