Encryption Functions

Overview

Allows for the encryption and decryption of text data using symmetric AES encryption. This plug-in uses standard Java cryptography functions to expose expression functions for the encryption and decryption of data using AES.

Key Features & Functionality

Functions:

  • encryptvalue(): Encrypt plain text data using an AES encryption key stored in the Secure Credentials Store
  • decryptvalue(): Decrypt encrypted text data using an AES encryption key stored in the Secure Credentials Store

Features:

  • Supports up to 256-bit AES keys when JCE Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy is enabled
  • Backwards compatible with older versions of Java lacking support for >128-bit encryption keys

  • Hello Jussi, how long encrypted key can be generated? in my case it is key generating more than 300 sometime 400/500. Can this be restricted?

    Hello Vinod - Can you please clarify your question? I am not sure whether you are referring to the length of the encryption keys, or the length of the encrypted values.

    The length of the encrypted values is not restricted and depends on the length of the cleartext value that is being encrypted. The length of the encryption keys is not limited per se, but the plugin will only use the first 256 bits (64 characters) of the provided key.
