The user asked for documentation regarding the encryption of data sent to AWS from monitors. It was suggested to check out https://support.controlup.com/docs/controlup-architecture-security-concepts. All data is encrypted with the Rijndael algorithm (AES) with a 128-bit encryption key. Depending on the mode either ControlUp Cloud servers or local storage will be used to store the key.

Hi guys just struggling to find a bit of Documentation on the encryption of data sent to AWS from monitors
128 bit AES
there was a doc before i need to but in a doc
https://support.controlup.com/docs/controlup-architecture-security-concepts
All data objects in the configuration database are encrypted using the Rijndael algorithm (AES) with a per-customer random 128-bit encryption key. In Hybrid Cloud mode, the encryption key is stored on the ControlUp Cloud servers and protected using DPAPI. In On-Premises mode, the data is encrypted for obfuscation purposes only and the key is stored locally, with a secret hardcoded string.
All data objects are encrypted locally, at the Console/Monitor instances, before being transmitted over the network to the relevant web services/database.
thanks 🙂
