[jira] [Created] (LUCENE-9379) Directory based approach for index encryption

Bruno Roustant created LUCENE-9379:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Directory based approach for index encryption
                 Key: LUCENE-9379
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9379
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Bruno Roustant
            Assignee: Bruno Roustant


The goal is to provide optional encryption of the index, with a scope limited to an encryptable Lucene Directory wrapper.

Encryption is at rest on disk, not in memory.

This simple approach should fit any Codec as it would be orthogonal, without modifying APIs as much as possible.

Use a standard encryption method. Limit perf/memory impact as much as possible.

Determine how callers provide encryption keys. They must not be stored on disk.
