> Normally keys have to be stored in a central location suing custom key management system. organizations can implement KeyProvider to integrate their custom key management system to Hadoop. This interface is specified in MAPREDUCE-4550
> Optionally , developers can use Safe to integrate custom key management system with Hadoop.
> Safe is an open source web service based keystore to securely store secret keys and passwords.
> Safe authenticates the user using SPNego, checks whether the user is authorized to read the secret and returns the secret.
> It is easy to plug in different mechanisms for authentication,authorization and Key storage.
> Safe is kept as a separate open source project at (http://benoyantony.github.com/safe/)
> The hadoop proxy to safe is added as a contrib project - hadoop-safe.
