PGP with SAP and PI

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am new to this forum. If my question is not right here, please guide me to suitable place...

I am exploring Encryption/Decryption options for data in SAP implementation.

I have a third party system, sending the data in JMS message. The data contains customer information including Bank account number, Routing number. The person at the third party system decided to encrypt the Bank account number, Routing number, and rest of the information non-Encrypted form, and send the message to JMS system.

I have SAP PI system to process this JMS message and create a record on SAP ECC system (IDoc).

I like to decrypt the Bank account number, Routing number at the ECC system, that way the data will be safe during the transfer process.

Looking forward for your inputs what is the relevant PGP software to use and the process to follow.

Your help is really appreciated.

Thanks,

Namadev

Dear Namadev

PI does not provide any mechanisms for PGP encryption nor do they have any specific recommendations for any third party products. I have seen some customers using tools like Didisoft etc.

You can code in java for encryption and decryption during mapping.  I would see the below link for example. We do in java encryption with the required algorithm.  Please see this.

you can use PGP encryption/decryption. note that there is no standard support for this.

So you could either code it yourself or buy a PGP solution from any 3rd party vendor.
