Release Change History

Upgrade Path: For HyTrust KeyControl, upgrade to 5.0 is allowed from release 4.3.2 only. For the HyTrust DataControl Policy Agent, upgrade to 5.0 is allowed from release 4.3 and higher. For details, see KeyControl Upgrades.

Changes in this release:

Version 5.0 is the first release of KeyControl on CentOS. The transition to CentOS from FreeBSD allows HyTrust to improve the security of the KeyControl operating system and to add features which were not available in FreeBSD.

The main KeyControl components were ported directly to CentOS and will continue to work as they did in earlier releases. The same is true for the KeyControl APIs. While some new commands were added, the old commands will continue to work. For a list of behavior changes in version 5.0, see What's New. All changes are described in the online help and the HyTrust DataControl Administration Guide.

Some of the major changes made in version 5.0 include:

• Added support for encrypting Windows GPT boot drives, including those drives that use UEFI Secure Boot.
• All data encryption now uses AES-XTS-512 encryption by default, including Linux system device encryption.
• NTP servers are now standardized across nodes when you join a new node to an existing cluster.
• The HyTrust support accounts have been redesigned and standardized with CloudControl. This includes an account that can be used in conjunction with HyTrust Support to reset the administrative password on a KeyControl node in case of emergencies.
• NFS backup is now disabled by default, so the NFS ports are no longer required. You can enable NFS backup access from the KeyControl webGUI at any time.
• KMIP servers can now require that all registered clients use TLS 1.2.
• You can now specify the SNMP Agent port for your SNMP polling agents.
• Decrypting a Windows boot drive now preserves thin provisioning where applicable.
• A KeyControl Security Admin can now disable two-factor authentication (2FA) for any KeyControl-managed user account. (But only the logged in user can enable 2FA for their own account.)
• The System Console for KeyControl nodes has been re-organized and streamlined.

Upgrade Path: For HyTrust KeyControl, upgrade to 4.3.2 is allowed from release 4.2, 4.2.1, 4.3, and 4.3.1 only. For the HyTrust DataControl Policy Agent, upgrade to 4.3.2 is allowed from release 4.1 and higher. For details, see KeyControl Upgrades.

Changes in this release:

Version 4.3.2 lays the groundwork for the upgrade to version 5.0, which will be the first release of KeyControl on CentOS. The transition to CentOS from FreeBSD allows HyTrust to improve the security of the KeyControl operating system, but it also requires a different migration path than previous KeyControl upgrades.

Version 4.3.2 adds functionality that you will use when you upgrade to version 5.x. In addition, version 4.3.2 removes support for SafeNet KeySecure.

Upgrade Path: For HyTrust KeyControl, upgrade to 4.3.1 is allowed from release 4.2, 4.2.1, and 4.3 only. For the HyTrust DataControl Policy Agent, upgrade to 4.3.1 is allowed from release 4.1 and higher. For details, see KeyControl Upgrades.

Changes in this release:

• You can now connect KeyControl with multiple Safenet Luna HSM servers in a Safenet High Availability (HA) group.

  You can also configure KeyControl to use one certificate for all nodes in the cluster or to use an individual certificate for each node in the cluster. Using individual certificates allows you to register a KeyControl cluster with Safenet LUNA HSM servers that have the ipcheck feature enabled.

• You can now configure multiple NICs on a KeyControl node in order to segregate node traffic.

• The HyTrust DataControl documentation set has the following notable improvements:

Upgrade Path: For HyTrust KeyControl, upgrade to 4.3 is allowed from release 4.2 or 4.2.1 only. For the HyTrust DataControl Policy Agent, upgrade to 4.3 is allowed from release 4.1 and higher. For details, see KeyControl Upgrades.

Changes in this release:

• You can now configure auto encryption settings for Cloud VM Sets. When enabled, any disk that matches the specified criteria will be automatically encrypted when it is registered with KeyControl. This option can also be set for individual VMs.
• Windows Access Control Policies can now include one or more folder-level access rules as well as filesystem-level and block-level access rules.
• You can now associate one or more Active Directory (AD) Security groups with a Cloud Admin Group. When you do so, all members of the AD Security group can then log into KeyControl with Cloud Admin privileges over all VMs registered with that Cloud Admin Group.
• Domain Admin groups have been removed, but the Domain Admin account privileges remain the same.
• You can now designate whether encrypted disks in the VMs registered with a Cloud VM Set can be decrypted. This option can also be set for individual VMs.
• You can now designate whether the HyTrust DataControl Policy Agent can be uninstalled from a VM registered with a Cloud VM Set. This option can also be set for individual VMs.
• You can now specify two LDAP domain controllers to enable failover.
• You can now generate a KMIP client certificate bundle using an externally-generated Certificate Signing Request (CSR).

Upgrade Path: For HyTrust KeyControl, upgrade to 4.2.1 is allowed from release 4.1 or 4.2 only. For the HyTrust DataControl Policy Agent, upgrade to 4.2.1 is allowed from release 3.4 and higher. For details, see KeyControl Upgrades.

Changes in this release:

• You can now encrypt any Linux system device such as /home, /var, or /opt.
• Starting with version 4.2, you can now upgrade all nodes in your KeyControl cluster without having to dismantle the cluster first. Each node in the cluster will be updated in turn. The upgrade process always ensures that keys can be delivered to the HyTrust DataControl Policy Agent or KMIP clients while the upgrade is in process.
• Automatic Vitals Reporting lets you automatically share information about the health of your KeyControl cluster with HyTrust Support.
• KeyControl SNMP support has been extended to include host identification and event correlation. On event correlation, KeyControl correlates a Clearing Event or other Status Change with a previously-issued Fault.
• Windows Access Control Policies now support Distributed File System (DFS) shares.

Upgrade Path: For HyTrust KeyControl, upgrade to 4.2 is allowed from release 4.1 only. For the HyTrust DataControl Policy Agent, upgrade to 4.2 is allowed from release 3.4 and higher. For details, see KeyControl Upgrades.

Changes in this release:

• Linux disks can now be encrypted, rekeyed, or decrypted while mounted and accessible to users.
• You can now specify that a Cloud VM Set should use a Single Encryption Key (SEK) for every VM registered with the set. This allows for data deduplication across VMs in the set.
• You can now configure SNMP traps in KeyControl.
• KeyControl now supports CHAP authentication for RADIUS user accounts.
• If you select Help from the KeyControl webGUI User menu, KeyControl now displays a help topic based on the page you are viewing in the webGUI.

Upgrade Path: For HyTrust KeyControl, upgrade to 4.1 is allowed from release 4.0 only. For the HyTrust DataControl Policy Agent, upgrade to 4.1 is allowed from release 3.3 and higher. For details, see KeyControl Upgrades.

Changes in this release:

• Data encryption is now supported on Windows 2012 and 2016 Core Servers, as well as on VMware Cloud on AWS.
• KeyControl now allows you to import an SSL certificate signed by the external certificate authority of your choice. This externally-signed SSL certificate replaces the default self-signed SSL certificate.

• In release 4.0, KeyControl added the ability to specify a user-defined Key Encryption Key (KEK) for a Cloud VM Set. The KEK provides an extra layer of security by encrypting the individual data encryption keys on the VMs associated with that Cloud VM Set. Both the KEK and the individual data encryption key must be available before the information on the VM can be accessed.

  In release 4.1, KeyControl improves the security of the KEK by requiring that it be stored on an external hardware security module (HSM) associated with the KeyControl cluster. In addition, it now allows you to import a KEK into a Cloud VM Set after that Cloud VM Set has been created.

• You can now resize an encrypted Windows data disk dynamically with no downtime.
• You can now upload a PKS certificate when configuring an LDAP server.

Upgrade Path: For HyTrust KeyControl, upgrade to 4.0 is allowed from release 3.4 only. For the HyTrust DataControl Policy Agent, upgrade to 4.0 is allowed from release 3.2.1 and higher.

• You can now configure the speed at which DataControl encrypts or decrypts a Windows disk or partition based on the number of pending I/O requests on the server. This feature is only available for Windows disks with the Policy Agent installed.
• Support bundles no longer contain the object store from the KeyControl node.
• If you want to link KeyControl with CloudControl 5.1, you can take advantage of the new AppLink feature in CloudControl. AppLink provides a more secure communication method and ensures that CloudControl account credentials are never specified in KeyControl.
• If you link KeyControl to HyTrust CloudControl 5.1 or later, KeyControl now displays the VM name next to its associated KMIP objects.
• The KeyControl webGUI includes many ease of use enhancements, such as a multi-select button that lets you select multiple objects in a table.
