Map, encrypt and send encrypted payload as mail attachment?

Posted on Apr 29, 2011 at 09:20 PM 51 Views

I have a payload generated via java mapping, which I am sending as mail attachment using Mail payload (mail package) in the same mapping. I would like to encrypt my payload before sending it as mail attachment.. What are my options?

    You can use the SSL for message encryption. Please check both help page below and the SSL guide for more information.

      - There is a parameter called "Content Encoding" on the "General" tab of the communication channel. You can set it to "Base 64" for encoding the content of the mail.

      Or you can check the blog below and in the method that creates the attachment, add a Base64 encryption for example (there are many code examples and libraries over the web). This would encrypt only the attachment.

    Hi,

    >I would like to encrypt my payload before sending it as mail attachment

    In your same message mapping call the encryption service to encrypt the message.

    Cheers

      Thank you Lucas and Agasthuri.

      Yes, it is really very easy to use...

      > > but again the question is would we have ability to specify the Public key ring of our customer dynamically?

      > No, Once you create the Public key to the each customer ..Make use of the the same

      Meaning there is no dynamic option to encrypt for all customers using one comm. channel... My client is not keen on creating new Comm. Channels for each of the customer ... but I don't see any other way around it, unless we go with the Java mapping? Would that be the correct statement.
