Hi Simon,
Thanks for that. I was originally thinking that the document remained encrypted for the life of the document and one would need to be decrypted once or more times at a later date after encryption. Clearly that is not the case and the document is persisted in plain text form (unencrypted).

On your other comment about the choice of "file system" or "blob" storage, that is a product choice, and although Insight stores documents in the db, other products do it on the file system.

Regards,

Mario

The solutions that I'm familiar with pick up unencrypted HL7 files, encrypt
them, transfer them, unencrypt them and drop them into a folder ready to be
for imported into the clinical package.

As such, messages two years and older should exist in the clinical database,
not in the file system - expired certificates shouldn't be a problem in the
normal course of events.

Regards,

how do you decrypt your older messages after the current certificates
are revoked? usually every 2 years.

apologies if you feel the question sounds silly.
