Hello,

You can add a connector to Jetty to enable SSL. Take a look at the jetty.xml (this file: https://github.com/BaseXdb/basex-api/blob/master/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/jetty.xml) and uncomment the SSL section to make it work. If you use a different container please take a look at the specific documentation of your container.

There is a cryptographic module available for BaseX. Please take a look at http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Cryptographic_Module#Encryption_.26_Decryption to see how you can encrypt and decrypt data. Naturally, this will certainly impact performance as encryption/decryption comes at a cost and you can't optimize much using encrypted data.

Cheers,

Dirk

Hello,

I yet use BaseX successfully, With the help of the Java BaseXClient exemple.

I work on some sensible data and so I wonder if it is possible to use HTTPS to connect to the DB with the REST protocol.

An other question is: would it be possible to work with XML files encrypted to avoid them to be readable and to baseX able decrypt the files content while we do queries on it ? Maybe it would result a big lost of performances

BaseX is a usefull work.

Thanks for it.
