CREATE COLUMN ENCRYPTION KEY

Updated on 2023-10-23 GMT+08:00

Function

CREATE COLUMN ENCRYPTION KEY creates a CEK that can be used to encrypt a specified column in a table.

Precautions

This syntax is specific to a fully-encrypted database.

When using gsql to connect to a database server, you need to use the -C parameter to enable the fully-encrypted database.

The CEK object created using this syntax can be used for column-level encryption. When defining a column in a table, you can specify a CEK object to encrypt the column.

Syntax

CREATE COLUMN ENCRYPTION KEY column_encryption_key_name WITH VALUES(CLIENT_MASTER_KEY = client_master_key_name, ALGORITHM = algorithm_type, ENCRYPTED_VALUE = encrypted_value);

Parameter Description

  • column_encryption_key_name

    This parameter is used as the name of a key object. In the same namespace, the value of this parameter must be unique.

    Value range: a string. It must comply with the identifier naming convention.

  • CLIENT_MASTER_KEY

    Specifies the CMK used to encrypt the CEK. The value is the CMK object name, which is created using the CREATE CLIENT MASTER KEY syntax.

  • ALGORITHM

    Encryption algorithm to be used by the CEK. The value can be AEAD_AES_256_CBC_HMAC_SHA256, AEAD_AES_128_CBC_HMAC_SHA256, or SM4_SM3.

  • ENCRYPTED_VALUE (optional)
    A key password specified by a user. The key password length ranges from 28 to 256 characters. The derived 28-character key meets the AES128 security requirements. If the user needs to use AES256, the key password length must be 39 characters. If the user does not specify the key password length, a 256-character key is automatically generated.
    NOTICE:
    • SM algorithm constraints: SM2, SM3, and SM4 are Chinese national cryptography standards. To avoid legal risks, these algorithms must be used together. If you specify the SM4 algorithm to encrypt CEKs when creating a CMK, you must specify the SM3 and SM4 algorithms (SM4_SM3) to encrypt data when creating CEKs.
    • Constraints on the ENCRYPTED_VALUE field: If the CMK generated by Huawei KMS is used to encrypt the CEK and the ENCRYPTED_VALUE field is used to transfer the key in the CREATE COLUMN ENCRYPTION KEY syntax, the length of the input key must be an integer multiple of 16 bytes.
