PGP in Cfolder

Hi all
i have 1 doubt,
what is PGP documents.
in cFolders Administration tab under  Encryption   
there is an option of PGP support.
can anyojne tell me what is this?
Niranjan

Hi Niranjan,
with this setting you can influence, that all files will be saved encrypted on cFolders. Even when an intruder gets access to the cFolders db or content server, the files can not be read by the intruder.
In order to make this run, please have a closer look to note 755382.
I hope that helps,
Martin

  • Transfer Excel file to external FTP server via PGP

    Hi SDN!
    I have build an scheduled report to generated an Excel-file from an internal table and saved it in the database. Now my task is to upload it to an external FTP Server of a partner company. The File contains sensible data and shall be encrypted via PGP.
    How can i upload to an external FTP server and before that, encrypt the file with PGP? I appreciate any help and look forward to reward some great posts.
    Thanks for your help!

    I found a solution myself, maybe someone is interrested:
    I installed a WS FTP Professional on a Server.
    Onto this server I wrote the files that have to be ftp-uploaded into one specific folder.
    A Perl Script in the scheduled tasks of the machine checks if a new file is in the folder and starts the upload.
    In WS FTP the site upload is defined with all PGP Keys so they are store secure.
    This solution can be used by any programming language that is able to write files in the upload folder.

  • Cfolder questions

    Hi Experts,
    I have couple of question related to CFolder which a test system configured and running on a SAP sandbox WAS.
    1) Can CF be extended to outside suppliers without  a need of an sap UI and password? If yes, do they just need any special  type of windows authentication? We have a mix of suppliers, some has access to SAP and some prohibited, but requires access to some limited SAP information.
    2) Out of the box cfolder solution allows to work with SAP objects like Material, MPN, Documents, BOM etc....can you import SCORE CARD and SCAR objects from SAP. Or do you need SRM integration with CFOLDER?
    3) Can you integrate BOBJ for publishing monthly (Excel, graphs etc)  reports to the supplier area of the cfolder?
    4) What are the pros and cons of running a cfolder system on the SAP ECC server itself. Does it need to be installed on its own server hardware?
    Thanks,
    Pradeep

    Hi Pradeep,
    Answering to your questions..
    1) Can CF be extended to outside suppliers without  a need of an sap UI and password? If yes, do they just need any special  type of windows authentication? We have a mix of suppliers, some has access to SAP and some prohibited, but requires access to some limited SAP information.
    Yes, cFolders is mainly available  for collaborating documents, materials, BOM's etc. with business partners like suppliers, customers. No need of access to SAP GUI for using cFolders, since cFolders is web based application(BSP application) which can be accessed using backend SAP user id's with relevant authorisations.If few suppliers has already access to SAP system, then those user ids can be used to access cFolders, Check with your accounts manager of SAP for licensing details.
    2) Out of the box cfolder solution allows to work with SAP objects like Material, MPN, Documents, BOM etc....can you import SCORE CARD and SCAR objects from SAP. Or do you need SRM integration with CFOLDER?
    cFolders can be easily integrated with SAP ECC system for accessing documents from DMS, materials, BOM's.  And as far as Score card & SCAR, i have no idea but SRM can be integrated with cFolders.
    3) Can you integrate BOBJ for publishing monthly (Excel, graphs etc)  reports to the supplier area of the cfolder?
    Business objects integration..not much idea about it but the outputs from BOBJ like excels, flash files can be uploaded to cFolders very easily and can be shared with suppliers.
    4) What are the pros and cons of running a cfolder system on the SAP ECC server itself. Does it need to be installed on its own server hardware?
    cFolders is part of component CPRXRPM and this component is a ERP addon, so it can be installed on the same server of ECC. This can be installed separately also, but I would recommend to install on same server since the integration becomes easier. If you take reference of business suite IDES, the above component is installed in the same instance and you can have a look at this.
    Hope these answers clarify your queries..

  • PGP Encryption support in SOA Suite 11g

    Hi,
    Looking for PGP encryption support in SOA Suite 11g as we have a requirement to encrypt the file using PGP encryption and send over SFTP.
    I already went through some of the forums posts but they are date back to 2007, so just wanted to confirm if there is anything in recent releases of SOA Suite.
    - FTP adapter support or
    - OWSM suppport.
    As far as i know, we have to install some PGP tool and write a script to encrypt/decrypt and call the script from BPEL. this conclusion is based on a stmt given in the OWSM 10g book by sitaraman.
    Please provide your insights on this.
    Thanks
    Siva

    Hi Siva,
    I don't think still there is any support for PGP in Oracle SOA. You may use java for PGP encryption/decryption and transfer externally encoded messages over SFTP.

  • Regarding creation of bom and material in cfolder

    dear gurus,
    i want help from all of u.
    can any one tell me , what is the benefit of creating BOM / material in cfolder instead of R3.???????
    full reward points for useful answer
    thanks
    [email protected]

    Hi,
    cFolders is a collaboration tool (tool used for talking to 3rd parties outside your company.)
    Usually you will not give access to your ERP system to others. In that case you use cFolders as medium of sharing information with others.
    if the 3rd party colleague want to suggest some improvements or modify you design documents etc., he can do it in cFolders. This then can be verified by you in cFolders (once modification is done he can change the status in cFolders which will trigger a notification to you ) then import it to cFolders.

  • After 10.6 security update 2013-002 PGP encrypted disk won't boot

    I ran the latest security update on my very old 17" intel MacBook Pro (It won't boot, so I can't give you the model number). It has PGP encryption installed on it, but I only have my passphrase, not the keys since it's a managed system.  Half way through the install, it failed with a cryptic error, and the machine won't boot now. It gets half way through booting, and the screen goes black.
    I have booted into single user mode, and ran fsck and applejack, only to get an error about a sibling error, and the hard disk is full.
    Is this a PGP issue? Does the latest security update conflict with PGP?
    I found this resolution to a similar sounding problem in 2010, but am unsure if this is happening now. Google searching hasn't yeilded anything so far.
    http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20101111120329585
    Thanks for any help.

    About PGP I can't tell; the hint you linked (and the suggested fix) might still be valid:
    PGP recommends folks to decrypt their drives first, update to 10.6.5 and then re-encrypt.
    this sounds as a general recommendation.
    However fsck reported a sibling error (an invalid link sibling error I presume) and that's not fine. Afaik, Disk Utility can't fix it; DiskWarrior hopefully will. I quote from Alsoft Support Database:
    Question
    Is DiskWarrior capable of repairing an "Invalid Sibling Link" error?
    Answer
    This is an error you definitely don't want. It indicates that parts of your directory, and therefore some of your files and folders, are inaccessible.
    Mac OS Standard (HFS) and Mac OS Extended (HFS Plus) disk directories have a very complex structure. Each file or folder (item) on a disk has an entry in the disk's directory. These entries are in order of enclosing folder and then item name. This is similar to a yellow pages directory being ordered by type of business and then business name. Just like a yellow pages directory, the disk directory has pages except that its pages are called nodes. Unlike the yellow pages, nodes are dynamic and change as you add and delete items. It's sort of like a realtime yellow pages.
    Imagine that the pages of the yellow pages are not in order and at the bottom of each page it says "Continued on page n," where n is the page that contains the next set of listings for the particular type of business that you're looking up. Well nodes are not arranged in order and each node has a reference, or link, to the next node that contains the next set of ordered items. This link is what is referred to as the sibling link.
    A sibling link error is a bad link to another node. Either the link refers to the wrong node or it refers to an invalid node. As I said, a sibling link error makes some of your items inaccessible and can even prevent a disk from mounting. Sibling errors are notoriously difficult for some of the patching type of disk repair utilities to repair. Sometimes the repairs fail and the directory is damaged further. If a disk with a sibling link error is still mountable, I would advise backing up the accessible files and folders on the disk before attempting to repair it with that type of disk repair utility.
    I'm not really sure DiskWarrior will work on a PGP encrypted disk. According to a few old Google matches, it should. See e.g.:
    http://kb.mit.edu/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=4263350
    but according to more recent ones, it won't:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2719460?start=0&tstart=0
    It seems you're out of luck even with Safe Boot (from PGP Whole Disk Encryption Command Line User's Guide):
    The Mac OS X Safe Boot feature does not work on a boot disk that has been whole disk encrypted; if you hold down the Shift key to enter Safe Boot, the system will fail to boot after authenticating at the PGP BootGuard screen.
    So, while you're waiting for some more knowledgeable advice, you might backup your data to an external drive while booted in single user mode. There are many how-tos out there; I think this one is pretty clear:

    Hi All,
    We need to do FTP some files from remote server and files are to be pgp encrypted or decrypted.Can you please tell is there some way to use pgp encryption in FTP adapter. If yes, please provide some link for documentation.
    or shall we do ftp using some other program which support pgp encryption and then our bpel process should read file using file adapter.
    Please suggest better option out of both.
    Thanks.

    Hi Ram,
    Is the scenario same in Oracle SOA Suite11g latest release as well?
    If we have to go for OpenPGP tool manual intervention is requried to encrypt the file which may not be possible in our scenario.

    Hi Anurag
    You should check if the Secure Connectivity add on was deployed correctly in your Dev system. Maybe there are some missing JAR or SCA files.
    Refer to the Secure connectivity add-on installation guide on how to download and deploy the SCA files. You can find this guide on the Service Marketplace (search for PI SFTP PGP ADDON.)
    You can also refer to the following How-to guide on checking the installation via NWA. The guide is for SFTP but you can follow the same steps in page 2 to check.

  • Digital Signatures in cFolder

    Hello Expert,
    we do SRM integration with cFolder and want to do the Digital Signatures  when uploading document in cFolder .
    Do your expert have experiences about it ..or share some document with me.. Many thanks..
    Your help would be really appreciated.
    Thanks & Best Regards,
    Bill

    Regarding #1, the short answer is no. Every time the file is digitally signed it necessitates it being saved. That's what allow "View Signed Version" and signature roll back to work.
    As for # 2, it depends on the version of Acrobat. Versions 6 and 7 allowed anyone to remove a signature as long as it wasn't a certifying signature. In the case of the certifying signature on the signer could remove. Beginning with version 8 you can only clear if you have access to the digital ID that was used to create the signature.
