--------------------------------------
Assignee: (was: Jason Brown)
> Add file-level encryption
> -------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-7922
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7922
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Jason Brown
> Priority: Major
> Labels: encryption, security
> Fix For: 4.x
>
>
> Umbrella ticket for file-level encryption
> Some use cases require encrypting files at rest for certain compliance needs:
> the healthÂcare industry (HIPAA regulations), the card payment industry (PCI
> DSS regulations) or the US government (FISMA regulations). File system
> encryption can be used in some situations, but does not solve all problems.
> I can foresee the following components needing at-rest encryption:
> - sstables (data, index, and summary files) (CASSANDRA-9633)
> - commit log (CASSANDRA-6018)
> - hints (CASSANDRA-11040)
> - some systems tables (batches, not sure if any others)
> - index/row cache
> - secondary indexes
> The work for those items would be separate tickets, of course. I have a
> working version of most of the above components working in 2.0, which I need
> to ship in production now, but it's too late for the 2.0 branch and unclear
> for 2.1.
> Other products, such as Oracle/SqlServer/Datastax Enterprise commonly refer
> to at-rest encryption as Transparent Data Encryption (TDE), and I'm happy to
> stick with that convention, here, as well.
