Security considerations

avatar

Hi there,

I am new to RDM but all I can say till now this is a wonderful product.

I concern about secure storing of user credentials and passwords when saving in database or locally. Can you tell me, if it gets stored encrypted an if so, which encryption algorythms are used? I found another post, where anybody wrote it gets encrypted twice, but no algorythm gets named.

This is crucial for purchasing the tool because I strictly have to follow security directives of the company, which say never to store user credentials and / or passwords without secure encryption.

Regards, Jochen

Hi,
We are using TripleDES and Rijndael encryption with our own private key and a salt, but the next version will allow you to specify your own encryption key and eventually your own certificate. This feature will be optional because it will lock down the database. This mean that if you loose your key, we won't be able to do anything to help you.

I hope this help.
