Encrypting content
Encrypt the new content for a storage area to help protect the confidentiality of the content in case the content is accessed outside of FileNet® P8. You can also force the generation of a new encryption key at any time. You might want a new key as a precautionary measure or when you suspect that the security of the current key has been compromised.
About this task
Restriction:
- Existing content is not encrypted or reencrypted.
- When replicated, content is not encrypted.
- When passed for indexing, content is not encrypted.
Important: The retrieval of encrypted content
relies upon information that is stored in the object store data. If
that information is lost, the content is effectively lost also. To
avoid such problems, regularly back up the object store data.
Procedure
