[jira] [Created] (NIFI-8094) Support BCFKS Keystore Type

David Handermann created NIFI-8094:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Support BCFKS Keystore Type
                 Key: NIFI-8094
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-8094
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core Framework, Extensions, Security
    Affects Versions: 1.12.1
            Reporter: David Handermann
            Assignee: David Handermann


The [Bouncy Castle FIPS Key Store|https://cryptosense.com/blog/bouncycastle-keystore-security/] (BCFKS) format supports storage of certificates and private keys using AES-CCM and PBKDF2 algorithms, providing greater security than the standard JKS and PKCS12 implementations. Support for BCFKS can be implemented using Bouncy Castle security provider libraries that are already leveraged throughout the system.

Initial support should include the ability to specify BCFKS as the key store and trust store type in standard properties files as well as the ability to select BCFKS in implementations of the SSLContextService.

Extension components that do not use {{SSLContextService.createSSLContext()}} may need additional work, which should be addressed in related issues following this implementation.
