Use Automatic Queryable Encryption with KMIP

On this page

  • Overview
  • Before You Get Started
  • Set Up the KMS
  • Configure your KMIP-Compliant Key Provider
  • Specify your Certificates
  • Create the Application
  • Assign Your Application Variables
  • Create your Encrypted Collection
  • Insert a Document with Encrypted Fields
  • Query on an Encrypted Field
  • Learn More

This guide shows you how to build an application that implements the MongoDB Queryable Encryption feature to automatically encrypt and decrypt document fields and use a Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP)-compliant key provider for key management.

After you complete the steps in this guide, you should have:

  • A Customer Master Key managed by a KMIP-compliant key provider

  • A working client application that inserts documents with encrypted fields using your Customer Master Key

Tip

Customer Master Keys

To learn more about the Customer Master Key, read the Keys and Key Vaults documentation.

To complete and run the code in this guide, you need to set up your development environment as shown in the Installation Requirements page.

Tip

See: Full Application

To see the complete code for this sample application, select the tab corresponding to your programming language and follow the provided link. Each sample application repository includes a README.md file that you can use to learn how to set up your environment and run the application.

1

To connect a MongoDB driver client to your KMIP-compliant key provider, you must configure your KMIP-compliant key provider such that it accepts your client's TLS certificate.

Consult the documentation for your KMIP-compliant key provider for information on how to accept your client certificate.

2

Your client must connect to your KMIP-compliant key provider through TLS and present a client certificate that your KMIP-compliant key provider accepts:

const tlsOptions = {
kmip: {
tlsCAFile: process.env["KMIP_TLS_CA_FILE"], // Path to your TLS CA file
tlsCertificateKeyFile: process.env["KMIP_TLS_CERT_FILE"], // Path to your TLS certificate key file
},
};
var tlsOptions = new Dictionary<string, SslSettings>();
var sslSettings = new SslSettings();
var clientCertificate = new X509Certificate2(_appSettings["Kmip:TlsCertP12"]!); // Full path to your client certificate p12 file
sslSettings.ClientCertificates = new[] { clientCertificate };
tlsOptions.Add("kmip", sslSettings);

Important

Your client certificate must be in pcks12 format. You can convert your certificate using OpenSSL with the following command:

openssl pcks12 -export -out "<new pcks12 certificate>" -in "<certificate to convert>" \
-name "<new certificate name>" -password "<new certificate password>"
tlsOpts := map[string]interface{}{
"tlsCertificateKeyFile": os.Getenv("KMIP_TLS_CERT_ECDSA_FILE"), // Path to your client certificate file
"tlsCAFile": os.Getenv("KMIP_TLS_CA_ECDSA_FILE"), // Path to your KMIP certificate authority file
}
kmipConfig, err := options.BuildTLSConfig(tlsOpts)
if err != nil {
panic(fmt.Sprintf("Unable to retrieve certificates from your environment: %s\n", err))
}
tlsConfig := map[string]*tls.Config{
"kmip": kmipConfig,
}

Important

You must use certificates with ECDSA keys when using the Go driver with PyKMIP.

Configure the following virtual machine options to specify the keystore and truststore that contain your KMIP TLS certificates and add them to the command that you use to start your Java application:

-Djavax.net.ssl.enabled=true
-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStoreType=pkcs12
-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=REPLACE-WITH-PATH-TO-PKC-KEYSTORE
-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=REPLACE-WITH-KEYSTORE-PASSWORD
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStoreType=jks
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=REPLACE-WITH-PATH-TO-TRUSTSTORE
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=REPLACE-WITH-TRUSTSTORE-PASSWORD

Note

Configure Client With SSLContext

If you would rather configure your client application using an SSL context, use the kmsProviderSslContextMap method.

const tlsOptions = {
kmip: {
tlsCAFile: process.env.KMIP_TLS_CA_FILE, // Path to your TLS CA file
tlsCertificateKeyFile: process.env.KMIP_TLS_CERT_FILE, // Path to your TLS certificate key file
},
};
tls_options = {
"kmip": {
"tlsCAFile": os.environ['KMIP_TLS_CA_FILE'], # Path to your TLS CA file
"tlsCertificateKeyFile": os.environ['KMIP_TLS_CERT_FILE'] # Path to your TLS certificate key file
}
}

Create a variable containing the endpoint of your KMIP-compliant key provider with the following structure:

kmsProviderCredentials = {
kmip: {
endpoint: process.env["KMIP_KMS_ENDPOINT"], // Your KMIP KMS endpoint
},
};
var kmsProviderCredentials = new Dictionary<string, IReadOnlyDictionary<string, object>>();
var kmsOptions = new Dictionary<string, object>
{
{ "endpoint", _appSettings["Kmip:KmsEndpoint"] } // Your KMIP KMS endpoint
};
kmsProviderCredentials.Add(kmsProvider, kmsOptions);
kmsProviderCredentials := map[string]map[string]interface{}{
"kmip": {
"endpoint": os.Getenv("KMIP_KMS_ENDPOINT"), // KMIP KMS endpoint
},
}
Map<String, Object> kmsProviderDetails = new HashMap<>();
kmsProviderDetails.put("endpoint", getEnv("KMIP_KMS_ENDPOINT")); // Your KMIP KMS endpoint
Map<String, Map<String, Object>> kmsProviderCredentials = new HashMap<String, Map<String, Object>>();
kmsProviderCredentials.put("kmip", kmsProviderDetails);
kmsProviders = {
kmip: {
endpoint: process.env.KMIP_KMS_ENDPOINT, // Your KMIP KMS endpoint
},
};
kms_provider_credentials = {
"kmip": {
"endpoint": os.environ['KMIP_KMS_ENDPOINT'] # Your KMIP KMS endpoint
}
}
2

Create an empty object as shown in the following code example. This prompts your KMIP-compliant key provider to generate a new Customer Master Key.

customerMasterKeyCredentials = {};
var customerMasterKeyCredentials = new BsonDocument();
cmkCredentials := map[string]string{}
BsonDocument customerMasterKeyCredentials = new BsonDocument();
customerMasterKeyCredentials = {};
customer_master_key_credentials = {}
3

Create an autoEncryptionOptions object that contains the following options:

  • The namespace of your Key Vault collection

  • The kmsProviderCredentials object, which contains your KMIP endpoint

  • The tlsOptions object that you created in the Specify your Certificates step

const autoEncryptionOptions = {
keyVaultNamespace: keyVaultNamespace,
kmsProviders: kmsProviderCredentials,
tlsOptions,
};

};
var autoEncryptionOptions = new AutoEncryptionOptions(
keyVaultNamespace,
kmsProviderCredentials,
extraOptions: extraOptions,
tlsOptions: tlsOptions);

Create an AutoEncryption object that contains the following options:

  • The namespace of your Key Vault collection

  • The kmsProviderCredentials object, which contains your KMIP endpoint

  • The cryptSharedLibraryPath object, which contains the path to your Automatic Encryption Shared Library

  • The tlsConfig object that you created in the Specify your Certificates step

}
autoEncryptionOptions := options.AutoEncryption().
SetKeyVaultNamespace(keyVaultNamespace).
SetKmsProviders(kmsProviderCredentials).
SetExtraOptions(cryptSharedLibraryPath).
SetTLSConfig(tlsConfig)

Create an AutoEncryptionSettings object that contains the following options:

  • The namespace of your Key Vault collection

kms_provider_credentials,
key_vault_namespace,
crypt_shared_lib_path=os.environ['SHARED_LIB_PATH'], # Path to your Automatic Encryption Shared Library
kms_tls_options=tls_options
)

Note

Automatic Encryption Options

The automatic encryption options provide configuration information to the Automatic Encryption Shared Library, which modifies the application's behavior when accessing encrypted fields.

To learn more about the Automatic Encryption Shared Library, see the Automatic Encryption Shared Library for Queryable Encryption page.

To create a client used to encrypt and decrypt data in your collection, instantiate a new MongoClient by using your connection URI and your automatic encryption options.

const encryptedClient = Mongo(uri, autoEncryptionOpts);
var clientSettings = MongoClientSettings.FromConnectionString(uri);
clientSettings.AutoEncryptionOptions = qeHelpers.GetAutoEncryptionOptions(
keyVaultNamespace,
kmsProviderCredentials);
var encryptedClient = new MongoClient(clientSettings);
encryptedClient, err := mongo.Connect(
context.TODO(),
options.Client().ApplyURI(uri).SetAutoEncryptionOptions(autoEncryptionOptions),
)
if err != nil {
panic(fmt.Sprintf("Unable to connect to MongoDB: %v\n", err))
}
defer func() {
_ = encryptedClient.Disconnect(context.TODO())
}()
MongoClientSettings clientSettings = MongoClientSettings.builder()
.applyConnectionString(new ConnectionString(uri))
.autoEncryptionSettings(autoEncryptionSettings)
.build();
try (MongoClient encryptedClient = MongoClients.create(clientSettings)) {
const encryptedClient = new MongoClient(uri, {
autoEncryption: autoEncryptionOptions,
});
encrypted_client = MongoClient(
uri, auto_encryption_opts=auto_encryption_options)
5

To encrypt a field, add it to the encryption schema. To enable queries on a field, add the "queries" property. Create the encryption schema as follows:

const encryptedFieldsMap = {
encryptedFields: {
fields: [
{
path: "patientRecord.ssn",
bsonType: "string",
queries: { queryType: "equality" },
},
{
path: "patientRecord.billing",
bsonType: "object",
},
],
},
};
var encryptedFields = new BsonDocument
{
{
"fields", new BsonArray
{
new BsonDocument
{
{ "keyId", BsonNull.Value },
{ "path", "record.ssn" },
{ "bsonType", "string" },
{ "queries", new BsonDocument("queryType", "equality") }
},
new BsonDocument
{
{ "keyId", BsonNull.Value },
{ "path", "record.billing" },
{ "bsonType", "object" }
}
}
}
};
encryptedFieldsMap := bson.M{
"fields": []bson.M{
bson.M{
"keyId": nil,
"path": "patientRecord.ssn",
"bsonType": "string",
"queries": []bson.M{
{
"queryType": "equality",
},
},
},
bson.M{
"keyId": nil,
"path": "patientRecord.billing",
"bsonType": "object",
},
},
}
BsonDocument encryptedFieldsMap = new BsonDocument().append("fields",
new BsonArray(Arrays.asList(
new BsonDocument()
.append("keyId", new BsonNull())
.append("path", new BsonString("patientRecord.ssn"))
.append("bsonType", new BsonString("string"))
.append("queries", new BsonDocument()
.append("queryType", new BsonString("equality"))),
new BsonDocument()
.append("keyId", new BsonNull())
.append("path", new BsonString("patientRecord.billing"))
.append("bsonType", new BsonString("object")))));
const encryptedFieldsMap = {
encryptedFields: {
fields: [
{
path: "patientRecord.ssn",
bsonType: "string",
queries: { queryType: "equality" },
},
{
path: "patientRecord.billing",
bsonType: "object",
},
],
},
};
encrypted_fields_map = {
"fields": [
{
"path": "patientRecord.ssn",
"bsonType": "string",
"queries": [{"queryType": "equality"}]
},
{
"path": "patientRecord.billing",
"bsonType": "object",
}
]
}

Note

In the previous code sample, both the "ssn" and "billing" fields are encrypted, but only the "ssn" field can be queried.

Instantiate ClientEncryption to access the API for the encryption helper methods.

const clientEncryption = encryptedClient.getClientEncryption()
var clientEncryptionOptions = new ClientEncryptionOptions(
keyVaultClient: keyVaultClient,
keyVaultNamespace: keyVaultNamespace,
kmsProviders: kmsProviderCredentials
);
var clientEncryption = new ClientEncryption(clientEncryptionOptions);
opts := options.ClientEncryption().
SetKeyVaultNamespace(keyVaultNamespace).
SetKmsProviders(kmsProviderCredentials)
clientEncryption, err := mongo.NewClientEncryption(encryptedClient, opts)
if err != nil {
panic(fmt.Sprintf("Unable to create a ClientEncryption instance due to the following error: %s\n", err))
}
ClientEncryptionSettings clientEncryptionSettings = ClientEncryptionSettings.builder()
.keyVaultMongoClientSettings(MongoClientSettings.builder()
.applyConnectionString(new ConnectionString(uri))
.build())
.keyVaultNamespace(keyVaultNamespace)
.kmsProviders(kmsProviderCredentials)
.build();
ClientEncryption clientEncryption = ClientEncryptions.create(clientEncryptionSettings);
const clientEncryption = new ClientEncryption(encryptedClient, autoEncryptionOptions);
client_encryption = ClientEncryption(
kms_providers=kms_provider_credentials,
key_vault_namespace=key_vault_namespace,
key_vault_client=encrypted_client,
codec_options=CodecOptions(uuid_representation=STANDARD)
)

Create your encrypted collection by using the encryption helper method accessed through the ClientEncryption class. This method automatically generates data encryption keys for your encrypted fields and creates the encrypted collection:

await clientEncryption.createEncryptedCollection(
encryptedDatabaseName,
encryptedCollectionName,
{
provider: kmsProviderName,
createCollectionOptions: encryptedFieldsMap,
masterKey: customerMasterKeyCredentials,
}
);

The C# version of this tutorial uses separate classes as data models to represent the document structure. Add the following Patient, PatientRecord, and PatientBilling classes to your project:

using MongoDB.Bson;
using MongoDB.Bson.Serialization.Attributes;
[BsonIgnoreExtraElements]
public class Patient
{
public ObjectId Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public PatientRecord Record { get; set; }
}
public class PatientRecord
{
public string Ssn { get; set; }
public PatientBilling Billing { get; set; }
}
public class PatientBilling
{
public string CardType { get; set; }
public long CardNumber { get; set; }
}

After you've added these classes, create your encrypted collection by using the encryption helper method accessed through the ClientEncryption class. This method automatically generates data encryption keys for your encrypted fields and creates the encrypted collection:

var createCollectionOptions = new CreateCollectionOptions<Patient>
{
EncryptedFields = encryptedFields
};
clientEncryption.CreateEncryptedCollection(patientDatabase,
encryptedCollectionName,
createCollectionOptions,
kmsProviderName,
customerMasterKeyCredentials);

Tip

Database vs. Database Name

The method that creates the encrypted collection requires a reference to a database object rather than the database name. You can obtain this reference by using a method on your client object.

The Golang version of this tutorial uses data models to represent the document structure. Add the following structs to your project to represent the data in your collection:

type PatientDocument struct {
PatientName string `bson:"patientName"`
PatientID int32 `bson:"patientId"`
PatientRecord PatientRecord `bson:"patientRecord"`
}
type PatientRecord struct {
SSN string `bson:"ssn"`
Billing PaymentInfo `bson:"billing"`
}
type PaymentInfo struct {
Type string `bson:"type"`
Number string `bson:"number"`
}

After you've added these classes, create your encrypted collection by using the encryption helper method accessed through the ClientEncryption class. This method automatically generates data encryption keys for your encrypted fields and creates the encrypted collection:

createCollectionOptions := options.CreateCollection().SetEncryptedFields(encryptedFieldsMap)
_, _, err =
clientEncryption.CreateEncryptedCollection(
context.TODO(),
encryptedClient.Database(encryptedDatabaseName),
encryptedCollectionName,
createCollectionOptions,
kmsProviderName,
customerMasterKey,
)

Tip

The method that creates the encrypted collection requires a reference to a database object rather than the database name. You can obtain this reference by using a method on your client object.

Create your encrypted collection by using the encryption helper method accessed through the ClientEncryption class. This method automatically generates data encryption keys for your encrypted fields and creates the encrypted collection:

CreateCollectionOptions createCollectionOptions = new CreateCollectionOptions().encryptedFields(encryptedFieldsMap);
CreateEncryptedCollectionParams encryptedCollectionParams = new CreateEncryptedCollectionParams(kmsProviderName);
encryptedCollectionParams.masterKey(customerMasterKeyCredentials);
try {
clientEncryption.createEncryptedCollection(
encryptedClient.getDatabase(encryptedDatabaseName),
encryptedCollectionName,
createCollectionOptions,
encryptedCollectionParams);
}

Note

Import ClientEncryption

When using the Node.js driver v6.0 and later, you must import ClientEncryption from mongodb.

For earlier driver versions, import ClientEncryption from mongodb-client-encryption.

Create your encrypted collection by using the encryption helper method accessed through the ClientEncryption class. This method automatically generates data encryption keys for your encrypted fields and creates the encrypted collection:

await clientEncryption.createEncryptedCollection(
encryptedDatabase,
encryptedCollectionName,

Create a sample document that describes a patient's personal information. Use the encrypted client to insert it into the patients collection, as shown in the following example:

const patientDocument = {
patientName: "Jon Doe",
patientId: 12345678,
patientRecord: {
ssn: "987-65-4320",
billing: {
type: "Visa",
number: "4111111111111111",
},
},
};
const encryptedCollection = encryptedClient.getDB(encryptedDatabaseName).getCollection(encryptedCollectionName);
const insertResult = await encryptedCollection.insertOne(patientDocument);

Create a sample document that describes a patient's personal information. Use the encrypted client to insert it into the patients collection, as shown in the following example:

var patient = new Patient
{
Name = "Jon Doe",
Id = new ObjectId(),
Record = new PatientRecord
{
Ssn = "987-65-4320",
Billing = new PatientBilling
{
CardType = "Visa",
CardNumber = 4111111111111111
}
}
};
var encryptedCollection = encryptedClient.GetDatabase(encryptedDatabaseName).
GetCollection<Patient>(encryptedCollectionName);
encryptedCollection.InsertOne(patient);

Create a sample document that describes a patient's personal information. Use the encrypted client to insert it into the patients collection, as shown in the following example:

patientDocument := &PatientDocument{
PatientName: "John Doe",
PatientID: 12345678,
PatientRecord: PatientRecord{
SSN: "987-65-4320",
Billing: PaymentInfo{
Type: "Visa",
Number: "4111111111111111",
},
},
}
coll := encryptedClient.Database(encryptedDatabaseName).Collection(encryptedCollectionName)
_, err = coll.InsertOne(context.TODO(), patientDocument)
if err != nil {
panic(fmt.Sprintf("Unable to insert the patientDocument: %s", err))
}

This tutorial uses POJOs as data models to represent the document structure. To set up your application to use POJOs, add the following code:

CodecProvider pojoCodecProvider = PojoCodecProvider.builder().automatic(true).build();
CodecRegistry pojoCodecRegistry = fromRegistries(getDefaultCodecRegistry(), fromProviders(pojoCodecProvider));

To learn more about Java POJOs, see the Plain Old Java Object wikipedia article.

This tutorial uses the following POJOs:

  • Patient

  • PatientRecord

  • PatientBilling

You can view these classes in the models package of the complete Java application.

Add these POJO classes to your application. Then, create an instance of a Patient that describes a patient's personal information. Use the encrypted client to insert it into the patients collection, as shown in the following example:

MongoDatabase encryptedDb = encryptedClient.getDatabase(encryptedDatabaseName).withCodecRegistry(pojoCodecRegistry);
MongoCollection<Patient> collection = encryptedDb.getCollection(encryptedCollectionName, Patient.class);
PatientBilling patientBilling = new PatientBilling("Visa", "4111111111111111");
PatientRecord patientRecord = new PatientRecord("987-65-4320", patientBilling);
Patient patientDocument = new Patient("Jon Doe", patientRecord);
InsertOneResult result = collection.insertOne(patientDocument);

Create a sample document that describes a patient's personal information. Use the encrypted client to insert it into the patients collection, as shown in the following example:

const patientDocument = {
patientName: "Jon Doe",
patientId: 12345678,
patientRecord: {
ssn: "987-65-4320",
billing: {
type: "Visa",
number: "4111111111111111",
},
},
};
const encryptedCollection = encryptedClient
.db(encryptedDatabaseName)
.collection(encryptedCollectionName);
const result = await encryptedCollection.insertOne(patientDocument);

Create a sample document that describes a patient's personal information. Use the encrypted client to insert it into the patients collection, as shown in the following example:

patient_document = {
"patientName": "Jon Doe",
"patientId": 12345678,
"patientRecord": {
"ssn": "987-65-4320",
"billing": {
"type": "Visa",
"number": "4111111111111111",
},
},
}
encrypted_collection = encrypted_client[encrypted_database_name][encrypted_collection_name]
result = encrypted_collection.insert_one(patient_document)

The following code sample executes a find query on an encrypted field and prints the decrypted data:

const findResult = await encryptedCollection.findOne({
"patientRecord.ssn": "987-65-4320",
});
console.log(findResult);
var ssnFilter = Builders<Patient>.Filter.Eq("record.ssn", patient.Record.Ssn);
var findResult = await encryptedCollection.Find(ssnFilter).ToCursorAsync();
Console.WriteLine(findResult.FirstOrDefault().ToJson());
var findResult PatientDocument
err = coll.FindOne(
context.TODO(),
bson.M{"patientRecord.ssn": "987-65-4320"},
).Decode(&findResult)
Patient findResult = collection.find(
new BsonDocument()
.append("patientRecord.ssn", new BsonString("987-65-4320")))
.first();
System.out.println(findResult);
const findResult = await encryptedCollection.findOne({
"patientRecord.ssn": "987-65-4320",
});
console.log(findResult);
find_result = encrypted_collection.find_one({
"patientRecord.ssn": "987-65-4320"
})
print(find_result)

The output of the preceding code sample should look similar to the following:

{
"_id": {
"$oid": "648b384a722cb9b8392df76a"
},
"name": "Jon Doe",
"record": {
"ssn": "987-65-4320",
"billing": {
"type": "Visa",
"number": "4111111111111111"
}
},
"__safeContent__": [
{
"$binary": {
"base64": "L1NsYItk0Sg+oL66DBj6IYHbX7tveANQyrU2cvMzD9Y=",
"subType": "00"
}
}
]
}
