Amplify-ios: Does Amplify DataStore support Encryption at client?

Created on 5 Jan 2021  路  2Comments  路  Source: aws-amplify/amplify-ios

Securing data stored in mobile devices is of huge importance for apps related to healthcare, finance sector. Encryption is a widely used technique to secure data at rest. When considering the encryption of database in mobile, either the whole file can be encrypted or only certain attributes can be encrypted. In native frameworks like CoreData this is achieved either through DataProtection API or through transformable properties. Does Datastore have an equivalent option to encrypt data at rest?

hi @sridhanya-ambaadi,
DataStore doesn't currently support encryption of data at rest but it's indeed an interesting feature.

I'll keep this issue open so we track it in our backlog.
