So, each node for the same cache group has the same cache encryption key. +See link:security/tde[Transparent Data Encryption] to learn more. + +Ignite 2.10 introduces a feature for changing the cache encryption key. +It allows users to change the cache group encryption key and re-encrypt existing data at runtime. + +Rotation of the cache encryption key is required if this key has been compromised or if the crypto period (key validity period) has ended. + +The process of changing the cache encryption key includes two sequential stages: + +1. Rotate cache group key. This process adds a new encryption key for the specified cache group(s) on each server node and sets it to write new data. Review comment: ```suggestion 1. Rotate cache group key. This process adds a new encryption key for the specified cache group or groups on each server node and sets it to write new data. ``` ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
