Dear All,
We are currently using SAPCRYPTOLIB. We are thinking of implementing Oracle
ASO encryption.... Wondering if this is a redundent solution.
Thank you very much in advance,
Regards,
>Wondering if this is a redundent solution.
Nope, it isn't.
SAPCRYPTOLIB is used in many places - but not in the communication from and to the Oracle database.
That's what you would use the Advances Security Option of Oracle for.
So these are complements to each other but do not overlap functions.
best regards,
LArs

Thanks Lars. Do you use ASO?
I am unsure what to use for
sqlnet.crypto_checksum_types_server|client and also
sqlnet.encryption_types_server|client?
Our system is a dual-stack. If I take the default encryption Oracle
will use AES256 but the ASO note says this is not supported on a Java
stack. Same for checksumming. If I take the default Oracle will use
SHA1 - which again is not supported for a Java stack system.
Hi there,
I'm a database support consultant working for SAP - so, besides test systems, no I don't actually use ASO.
Anyhow, as we're in SAPonOracle-World: just do it as the note says.
And if it's not supported for JDBC (yet), then don't use it. Otherwise you may run into trouble for which the only help you'll get will be: disable it again.
regards,
Lars
