Using Amazon S3 Cloud Encryption

To use the encryption security feature of the Amazon S3 cloud service, you need to download security JAR files and place them on the Spectrum Technology Platform server. Using encryption is optional.

  1. Go to the download site.

    For Windows and Linux platforms using Java 7, the JAR files can be downloaded from:

    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jce-7-download-432124.html

    For AIX platforms using Java 7, the JAR files can be downloaded from:

    https://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/iwm/web/preLogin.do?source=jcesdk

  2. Download these two JAR files:
    • local_policy.jar
    • US_export_policy.jar
  3. Place the JAR files in the location: 
    %JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib\security
  4. Restart the server.
