Decrypt Extension or method for decrypt AES in Thingworx 8.5

Hello everybody!

 

We are trying to decrypt a frame of data (the encription is AES- Advanced Encryption Standar) from one device using Thingworx. The main idea was use the extension in the market place (https://marketplace.ptc.com/en-US/apps/196131/crypto-extension-for-thingworx)  but looks unavailable. 

How can we get the extension? Is there any method for to do that without the extension?

 

Thank you in advance,

 

Luis.

We ran into a similar roadblock trying to validate a signature on a token.  My suggestion is to create a Java extension and use the BouncyCastle

library to achieve your goal.  Hope that helps.

Hi @LuisCabello 

 

In Resources , there are Encryption Services that may work for your needs.  If not, you could decrypt the data before it reaches ThingWorx.
