File encryption

Former Member
0 Kudos

HI all,

I need to know whether Netweaver provides a utility for file encryption which can be called through an applications running Netweaver.

We want to use encryption on the files uploaded to the application server so that the person who has the access to the file location where the file is saved can not modify it.

Thanks in advance

I'm not sure exactly what you are looking for, but the SSF interface might help you out.

However, the SAP NetWeaver app server does not provide the encryption routines itself, you need an external security product. You could then use the report SSF02 to encrypt individual files.. If you're looking at encrypting files on a larger scale though, you might need to do some custom implementation.

Here is the information about SSF:
