SAP HANA SSFS key storage access rights

Former Member

Hi Everyone,

I have a little question about the SSFS master key storage and access rights related to it.

The file:

/usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/global/security/rsecssfs/key/SSFS_<SID>.KEY

Should contain the master key used to decrypt the keys that are used to encrypt the data handled by the SAP HANA. (or at least i think so, so please correct me if I am wrong).

I am wondering why is this file accessible for "others" (read and execute) in the system that I am currently checking. Is this a security risk for the system? I cant find any good reason to have this file accessible for "others" as the whole SAP is running under <SID>adm.

Thanks for any clarifications

Much appreciated

Martin

Hi Martin,

Check the note 1639578 - SSFS as password store for primary database connect, it has mentioned to change the permissions after the SSFS config.
