             Summary: Refactor encryption and decryption of sensitive flow properties
                 Key: NIFI-9965
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-9965
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Security
            Reporter: Emilio Setiadarma
            Assignee: Emilio Setiadarma


Sensitive flow properties are typically encrypted in flow.xml.gz as `enc\{ciphertext}`. Decryption is also not standardized, but used in various components, `StandardFlowComparator` and `FlowFromDOMFactory` to name a few. This issue is an effort to standardize the way these values are encrypted and decrypted. This issue also aims to introduce an encryption format that more clearly identifies the underlying sensitive properties algorithm used.
