Data encryption
Data encryption refers to protecting data while in-transit (as it travels to and from AWS IoT FleetWise, and between gateways and servers), and at rest (while it's stored on local devices or in AWS services). You can protect data at rest using client-side encryption.
Note
AWS IoT FleetWise edge processing exposes APIs that are hosted within AWS IoT FleetWise gateways and are accessible over the local network. These APIs are exposed over a TLS connection backed by a server-certificate owned by the AWS IoT FleetWise Edge connector. For client authentication, these APIs use an access-control password. The server-certificate private-key and the access-control password are both stored on disk. AWS IoT FleetWise edge processing relies on file-system encryption for the security of these credentials at rest.
