Hi all, We created a wiki page discussing the addition of software side encryption to Swift: "The general scheme is to create a swift proxy middleware that will encrypt and sign the object data during PUT and check the signature + decrypt it during GET. The target is to create two domains - the user domain between the client and the middleware where the data is decrypted and the system domain between the middleware and the data at rest (on the device) where the data is encrypted. Design goals include: (1) Extend swift as necessary but without changing existing swift behaviors and APIs; (2) Support encrypting data incoming from unchanged clients"
See: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Swift/server-side-enc We would like to invite feedback.
