The region key is used to generate IBM FileNet P8 Identity Tokens for use between Process Engine applications and Process Engine servers. In the IBM FileNet P8 4.5 release, this key is generated by Content Engine, based on the RegionPassword property. In a future release, Process Engine will generate the isolated region key using the FIPS 140-2 compliant Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm. The key is then passed to the Content Engine and the value is stored on the Content Engine server in the GCD, encrypted with the Content Engine's master key.
Because the datatype is binary, you should set the RegionKey property value through a secure channel (Secure Socket Layer, or SSL). If the value is set, retrieval of the region key returns a zero-length value; otherwise, returns
.
Note: Support for the isolated region key generation using a password will be discontinued in a future release.
