Encrypting data in virtual patterns

You can encrypt your virtual application patterns, virtual system patterns, and their associated artifacts by using the IBM® Cloud Pak System Software for Power® data-at-rest encryption function.

Introduction

You can protect sensitive data associated with your virtual pattern deployments by using data encryption. Encryption of data-at-rest assures that your data on disk is secure. Virtual pattern data can be encrypted by encryption packages that are provided by IBM. Encryption packages for IBM Cloud Pak System Software for Power can be downloaded from IBM Passport Advantage®. Alternately, encryption software vendors can work with IBM to create encryption software packages for their product, that can be deployed on Cloud Pak System Software.
