Abstract
A system is provided for data object encryption. The system includes an encryption framework available across a plurality of runtime environments. The system is configured to receive a data object in one of the plurality of runtime environments, wherein the data object is capable of being encrypted using a content encryption key and determine an encryption module implemented in the encryption framework that is compatible with the one of the plurality of runtime environment, wherein the encryption module comprises a key service provider that provides a master key and a key wrapping algorithm for the content encryption key in the runtime environment. The system is further configured to encrypt the data object using the content encryption key, encrypt the content encryption key using the master key and key wrapping algorithm, and write the encrypted data object to networked database storage.
