Please let me know the various levels of security which can be implemented in ThingWorx.
Thanks in advance.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Easiest way would be to encrypt the drive itself, which is what I should've said vs. encrypt the database.
I am actually not certain if we support encrypted DB
I apologize but I'm not much of an expert on how to set it up, so I can't give you guidance with that.
Hi,
Please check the Security chapter from Help Center: http://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx_hc/thingworx_8_hc/en/#page/ThingWorx%2FHelp%2FComposer%2FSecurity%2FSecurity.html%23
Hope it helps,

I recommend you can start with our security white paper
https://www.ptc.com/en/resources/iiot/white-paper/securing-architecture-infrastructure-iot-ecosystem
We support several secure protocols for data in transit SSL/TLS, HTTPS/WSS. The agent also allows for a few different encryption libraries.
Access wise Thingworx has auth and encrypted/hashed password storage
but Thingworx also can work with AD and other IdM systems
At rest you can store your data in an encrypted database although there will be an impact on performance.
For data separation, you can use multiple persistence providers
Hope that helps
Hi Pai,

Thanks
