What are the possibilities to encrypt passwords stored in DataMiner, such as DataMiner user credentials, passwords to access third party devices etc.. ? (encryption at rest)

Thomas, there are a few things:

  • User access: In the best possible scenario you connect your DataMiner System to the domain, that way DataMiner is unaware of any password, everything is managed by the domain.
  • Credentials in drivers: In a driver there is the option the tag a parameter as password parameter.  This makes sure the parameter is stored encrypted in the database.
  • From a DataMiner 10.0.x feature release and DataMiner 10.1 main release we have a credential library that allows you to safely store and manage the credentials for your equipment for systems that use SNMP.  We’ll further extend this in the future to allow for storage of passwords for web-connections and other integrations.
