Data at Rest Encryption Requirements
This topic describes the data at rest encryption requirements for Cloudera Private Cloud Base.
Encryption comprises several components, each with its own requirements.
Data at rest encryption protection can be applied at a number of levels within Hadoop:
- OS filesystem-level
- Network-level
- HDFS-level (protects both data at rest and in transit)
This section contains the various hardware and software requirements for all encryption products used for Data at Rest Encryption.
