PGP Encryption/Decryption

[Former Member]

Hello,

We have purchase AEADAPTIVE and uses their PGP modules for sending the files to third party.

For an encryption scenario, the third party has given their public key to us.

Please clarify me my understanding.

I assume we use their public key to encrypt the file and send it to them.

The third party will use their private key to decrypt the data sent by us.

In this, do we need to send our public key to the third party ?

I am a bit confused.

Hi,

Please have a look at the same configuration for SAP standard adapter modules:

http://scn.sap.com/community/pi-and-soa-middleware/blog/2012/04/10/pgpencryption-module-how-to-guide

in Shabz's blogs

there is no need to buy any additional things to make them run,

Sometimes there is a reason to not use the new SAP PGP module.

You know... when encrypting the message with the SAP PGP module f.e. when using the file/sftp adapter and write it to a file f.e. called testfile.csv.pgp and the receiver doesn't use PI for message processing, but PGP on command line or GUI the file he decrypts wont be called testfile.csv (just stripped of the .pgp file extension as expected), but a new file will be created with a filename of the message-id.

In some cases this is totally unacceptable and therefor you need to use other modules or even shell scripts, especially in file to file scenarios where the decrypted filename cannot be the SAP message-id.

Btw. anyone knows a way to prevent the module to use the message-id as filename to be encrypted?

Based on a dialogue with SAP via OSS, SAP has confirmed that there is a limitation in the current release of PI B2B ADDON 1.0 for the PGP modules as documented above by Peter Hermanns. The source filename gets converted into a message-id due to the SAP module PGPEncryption

However something to look forward, SAP has confirmed that they would be fixing this issue in the next patch due for release in December 2012 , Support Package, SP01 of PI B2B ADDON 1.0
