Hi, in r1522 I have committed a new core feature that allows for server-wide storage of key-value tuples. Data pools allow for storing data that should be accessible across workflow instances or even throughout the system.
The encryption feature allows to transparently encrypt individual values in a way that even full read access to the database will not reveal the stored entries to an administrator. Encryption is implemented using the data pool feature itself, VolatileVault and the asymmetric password safe mechanism. As soon as a password safe is configured for a realm (and the private key is logged in) it is possible to transparently store and retrieve encrypted data in/from the data pool. In our current project we will use the data pool to store encrypted unblocking PINs for SmartCards (PUKs). The PUKs are stored encrypted in the database. Please read http://wiki.openxpki.org/index.php/Development/Data_Pools for a full documentation of the feature. cheers Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
