The data in eDirectory can be stored in any of the following ways:
In the Data Information Base (DIB) or database
As backup data
LDIF file
You can encrypt attributes by creating and applying encrypted attributes policies to the servers.
To encrypt the attributes, do the following using iManager:
1
Create and define an encrypted attribute policy.
1a
Select the attributes for encryption.
1b
Select the
encryption scheme
for the attributes.
Refer to
“Creating and Defining Encrypted Attributes Policies” on page 242
for more
information.
2
Apply the encrypted attributes policy to a server.
Refer to
“Applying Encrypted Attributes Policies” on page 242
for more information.
You can also encrypt attributes through LDAP.
Refer to
“Managing Encrypted Attributes Policies Through LDAP” on page 243
for more
information.
NOTE:
Encrypted Attributes Policy assignment takes effect when Limber runs.
As a best practice, we recommend you to do the following:
Mark only sensitive attributes for encryption. Do not mark all attributes for encryption (for
example, public or server readable attributes).
Use AES while marking an attribute for encryption as it is the strong encryption algorithm.
