From a functionality perspective, the length of the key doesn't matter: the plugin will work no matter how long the key is.
You must use the same key you used to encrypt. The opposite of encrypting, decrypting takes the encrypted string and outputs back the original piece of text. The function outputs the results as a Base64-encoded string, so it can be stored in a text field. AES is an industry-standard encryption algorithm developed by the National Institutes of Standards and Technology (NIST). Does what it says on the tin: it encrypts a piece of text using the AES-256 bit encryption algorithm. If you have a FileMaker system that could benefit from a tighter security policy, contact us to discuss helping you add encryption to your system using the BaseElements plugin. Encrypting at the field level prevents unauthorized users from accessing sensitive data in open FileMaker files, whether that be from exporting records, checking out a field value in Data Viewer, or accidentally stumbling upon a developer layout displaying the field.

Encrypting the entire database at rest, using FileMaker Pro 13 Advanced's new file-level encryption, is also important in protecting sensitive data, but will not help you once a user has the database open. The new encryption functionality in the BaseElements plugin allows you to securely store sensitive data, such as credit card numbers and SSNs (ideally you wouldn't store this data, but if need be, encryption is an important component of PCI and HIPAA compliance). The latest beta version of the BaseElements plugin (2.3 as of ) now includes a set of AES encryption functions that can be used to encrypt text fields in a FileMaker database. So, as history tends to do, we repeated ourselves by sponsoring the development of the plugin again, but this time for encryption functions. Just as we've needed HTTP POST many times over the years, we've also needed field-level encryption. Since then, we've used the HTTP POST functions in many web service integrations and are thankful for Goya's continued contributions to the FileMaker community with this Swiss-army-knife-esque, open-source plugin. In fact we love it so much we decided to sponsor the development of HTTP POST in the plugin back at the beginning of 2012. If you’ve ever had a previous memory/crash issue with BE, I’d recommend trying this one.We here at DB Services love the BaseElements plugin. We also spent a lot of time looking for memory leaks with this version, to try to track down a server issue, so there’s a lot of fixes there. Lots of minor fixes and changes, some new functions, and new additions to other functions. There are a lot, all the details, as always are in GitHub : v4.1.4 will run on centos and 4.2 and later will be ubuntu only. What happened to centos?įileMaker Server for linux was a centos version of linux, but is now ubuntu, and so we’re only building for a single platform.

So this means you can have a Mac plugin in windows, without breaking the Mac folder/bundle format. gz file and it will come in as uncompressed. So you can insert a plugin into a container field using the insert file step, and select a.
Gz is just another compression format, but it has the advantage of it being the internal compression format for FileMaker container fields.
Please contact us if you notice anything.
This isn’t a final 4.2 release, that will come shortly, but it passes all our tests and is just waiting on some time out in real testing to make sure there’s nothing we’ve missed.

With FileMaker 19.3 out, and now with native support for the new Apple M1 processor, plus a new Ubuntu release for FileMaker Server, there’s a need for a new BE plugin. It’s been a bit slow here on the releases, but things are hectic at Goya with lots of development going on all over the place.
