Encrypt files written to file system

Former Member

Hello,

is it possible to create an encrypted text file with ABAP?

I have to make sure the administrators with access to the UNIX file system are not able to read the content of the file.

Is there a function that encrypts/decrypts the data that is written/read?

Tanks for your help!

Carsten

We can but with a Z.I don't think SAP has any standard FM which takes the enryption key and the file name as input for encrypting/decrypting the file.

Thanks,

Hi,

I don't think SAP has given any function module to encrypt or decrypt the data but yes you can write a JAVA scrypt to do the same and the scrypt can be called through ABAP program which will encrypt the created file at runtime and will delete the text file.

Same way decrypter aslo can be writeen in JAVA scrypt and scrypt can be called to convert it in text file.
