Limitations
The properties that are encrypted need to be accessible from the server side as the encryption mechanism relies on a location that is not web accessible from a client for security purposes. There is minimal performance overhead for encrypting and decrypting a property. However, it should be noted that the underlying implementation of the Java keystore relies on a singleton pattern and access to the keystore is synchronized.
Sample Code
Creating a Java keystore for Windchill to encrypt values:
try
{
WTKeyStore keyStore = new
WTKeyStore(WTProperties.getLocalProperties(). getProperty("wt.home"));

}catch(IOException e){
logger.error("Could not load keystore", e);
}
Encrypting a value in the keystore:
String value = “encrypted.wt.pom.dbPassword”;
String property = “wt.pom.dbPassword”;
try
{
WTKeyStore keyStore = new
WTKeyStore(WTProperties.getLocalProperties(). getProperty("wt.home"));

// encrypt property value
keyStore.put(property, value);

} catch (IOException ioe) {
logger.error("Error creating keystore: ", ioe);
} catch (NullPointerException npe) {
logger.error("Could not add the encrypted value to the keystore: ", npe);
}
Decrypting a property:
String product_root = WTProperties.getLocalProperties(). getProperty(“wt.home”);
String value = “encrypted.wt.pom.dbPassword”;
String property = “wt.pom.dbPassword”;
// decrypt encrypted values
value = WTKeyStoreUtil.decryptProperty(property, value, product_root);

/* value can now be used as normal as it will contain the decrypted value */
Additionally, a secondary means can be used to decrypt a value:
String value = “encrypted.wt.pom.dbPassword”;
try
{
WTKeyStore keyStore = new
WTKeyStore(WTProperties.getLocalProperties(). getProperty("wt.home"));

// decrypt encrypted values
String ks_value = keyStore.get(value);
if(ks_value != null)
{
value = ks_value;
}
}catch(IOException e){
logger.error("Could not load keystore", e);
}
Adding a new regular expression for encrypting dynamic properties:
/* This code currently exists in WTKeystoreUtil.java. except where
* where denoted “NEW”
*/
private static final String NEW_REGULAR_EXPRESSION = “<your regular
expression goes here>”; // NEW


private static List<String> getEncryptionPropertiesRegExList(final
String product_root) {
List<String> propertiesList = new ArrayList<String>();

if(isCompletePropertiesListFile(product_root)) {
/*
* add a hardcoded list of dynamic properties that will
* utilize regular expressions to determine what to encrypt
* for dynamic property names.
*/
propertiesList.add(WT_FEDERATION_DEFAULTAUTHORIZATION);
propertiesList.add(NEW_REGULAR_EXPRESSION); // NEW

logger.debug("Full property list found, returning regex
list of size=" + propertiesList.size());
} else {
logger.debug("Full property list not found, return empty
regex list");
}
return propertiesList;
}
This will add a new regular expression for matching property name patterns. Again, care must be taken when creating a regular expression. See Procedure – Encrypting Dynamic .xconf Managed Single-Valued Properties section in Procedure – Encrypting Static .xconf Managed Single-Valued Properties topic.
Examples of Usage in Windchill Code
wt.dataservice.DSPropertiesServer.java
This Java class works with DSProperties.java to decrypt property values that appear encrypted. This class uses reflection to ensure that the DSPropertiesServer exists on the server and not the client side.
com.ptc.wvs.server.cadagent.Inifile.java
This Java class implements a means to decrypt properties that are not .xconf file managed properties.
com.ptc.windchill.keystore.WTKeyStoreUtilWVS.java
This Java class implements a means to encrypt properties that are not .xconf file managed properties.
com.ptc.windchill.keystore.WTKeyStoreUtil.java
This Java class implements a means to encrypt dynamic properties that are.xconf file managed properties.
