With Datasafe, what key is used in encrypting the user credentials "obfuscating user credentials"?

Hi;

 

With Datasafe, what key is used in encrypting the user credentials values "obfuscating user credentials"? One of my customers is asking me this question.

 

 

Kindly

    Hi Wasfi,

     

    Datasafe parameters are encrypted with an asymmetric key pair that is provided from a list of 1000 (default) pairs that are re-generated daily by datasyncd. These keys are used exclusively for Datasafe. I hope that this answers your question.
