Detect encryption metadata attributes on incoming flowfile and use for decryption

    XMLWordPrintableJSON

Details

    Description

      After NIFI-3889 / NIFI-7122 / NIFI-7396 are complete, incoming flowfiles containing content encrypted by the EncryptContent processor will have encryption metadata in the attributes, which should allow arbitrary decryption from a variety of algorithms and KDFs rather than having a specific instance of the EncryptContent processor in decrypt mode for every possible encryption type. However, this will likely depend on the introduction of key management service (KMS) controller services for the processor to encapsulate key derivation & provision and allow for unique identifiers to reference those services & keys.
