keys.dat fields/purpose
Comments

Hi,
Our security team has asked me to find out from you which fields in the database are encrypted using the keys.dat keys? I know that if I create a data structure and choose “Encrypt field” that it will use that, but I don’t know what are the other purposes of keys.dat?
Basically, if we sync a database between two Decisions installations and do not have the same keys.dat, what impact would it cause?
Thanks.

Hi,
The following data is encrypted in the database: (Reference: [url=https://documentation.decisions.com/encryption-keys-installer/]https://documentation.decisions.com/encryption-keys-installer/[/url])
Connection Strings for Database Integrations Passwords (like AD connection info settings) Custom data that you, as a user of Decisions, are encrypting
