Field Encryption with MongoDB Client-Side Field Level Encryption (CSFLE)

Field Encryption with MongoDB Client-Side Field Level Encryption (CSFLE)

Learning Byte Overview:

In this Learning Byte, a MongoDB expert will demonstrate how to use MongoDB's Client-Side Field Level Encryption (CSFLE) to encrypt sensitive plain text fields in documents before transmitting data to the server. You’ll learn about the state of encryption today and how to use CSFLE as an added layer of security to your application. We’ll walk you through how to set up Automatic Client-Side Field Level Encryption with Amazon Web Services (AWS) Key Management Service (KMS) and a MongoDB Driver. Finally, you’ll learn how to insert data into a collection using a secure client with client field-level encryption enabled and how to check them in MongoDB Compass.
