Kafka encryption configuration

Overview

This page gives you copy-paste examples to encrypt and decrypt Kafka data with Conduktor Gateway. Each example is an end-to-end scenario: a message arrives, an encryption Interceptor protects it on produce, and a DecryptPlugin returns it on consume. Find out more about:

From our blog: Stop building Kafka encryption libraries Why custom encryption code creates tech debt and how a proxy-based approach eliminates it.

On-consume encryption plugins (FetchEncryptPlugin and FetchEncryptSchemaBasedPlugin) were removed in Gateway v3.19.0. To protect data on consume, use produce-side encryption or data masking. See removed Interceptors for their previous documentation.

How to read these examples

The examples share one sample record, a customer with Personally Identifiable Information (PII):

{
  "id": "cust-001",
  "email": "laura@example.com",
  "ssn": "123-45-6789",
  "phone": "+1-555-0100"
}

Field-level examples encrypt the email, ssn and phone fields of this record.
Apply a CLI example with conduktor apply -f <file>.yaml.
The examples keep secrets (Vault tokens, Schema Registry credentials) out of the configuration by referencing environment variables set in the Gateway container. Use $${VAR} in the CLI examples and ${VAR} in the curl examples: both resolve in Gateway. Find out more about environment variables for secrets.

Full payload encryption

Use full payload encryption to protect the entire record value without looking inside it. Gateway treats the value as one blob, so you don’t need a Schema Registry. Scenario: any message produced to a topic has its whole value encrypted on produce, and decrypted on consume.

Encrypt the full payload

CLI
curl

apiVersion: gateway/v2
kind: Interceptor
metadata:
  name: full-payload-encrypt
spec:
  pluginClass: io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.EncryptPlugin
  priority: 100
  config:
    topic: ".*"
    kmsConfig:
      vault:
        uri: http://vault:8200
        token: $${VAULT_TOKEN}
    recordValue:
      payload:
        keySecretId: vault-kms://vault:8200/transit/keys/payload-key
        algorithm: AES256_GCM

curl \
  --request PUT \
  --url 'http://localhost:8888/gateway/v2/interceptor' \
  --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46Y29uZHVrdG9y' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-raw '{
  "kind": "Interceptor",
  "apiVersion": "gateway/v2",
  "metadata": {
    "name": "full-payload-encrypt"
  },
  "spec": {
    "pluginClass": "io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.EncryptPlugin",
    "priority": 100,
    "config": {
      "topic": ".*",
      "kmsConfig": {
        "vault": {
          "uri": "http://vault:8200",
          "token": "${VAULT_TOKEN}"
        }
      },
      "recordValue": {
        "payload": {
          "keySecretId": "vault-kms://vault:8200/transit/keys/payload-key",
          "algorithm": "AES256_GCM"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}'

Decrypt the full payload

On consume, a DecryptPlugin with access to the same KMS returns the original value. You don’t list any fields, so Gateway decrypts the whole payload.

CLI
curl

apiVersion: gateway/v2
kind: Interceptor
metadata:
  name: full-payload-decrypt
spec:
  pluginClass: io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.DecryptPlugin
  priority: 100
  config:
    topic: ".*"
    kmsConfig:
      vault:
        uri: http://vault:8200
        token: $${VAULT_TOKEN}

curl \
  --request PUT \
  --url 'http://localhost:8888/gateway/v2/interceptor' \
  --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46Y29uZHVrdG9y' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-raw '{
  "kind": "Interceptor",
  "apiVersion": "gateway/v2",
  "metadata": {
    "name": "full-payload-decrypt"
  },
  "spec": {
    "pluginClass": "io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.DecryptPlugin",
    "priority": 100,
    "config": {
      "topic": ".*",
      "kmsConfig": {
        "vault": {
          "uri": "http://vault:8200",
          "token": "${VAULT_TOKEN}"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}'

Field-level encryption

Use field-level encryption to protect named fields and leave the rest of the record readable. Each field can use its own key and algorithm, so you can grant different consumers access to different fields. Scenario: your producers send the sample customer record, and you want to encrypt email, ssn and phone, each with its own key. The field path syntax is the same whether the value is plain JSON or Avro. The one difference is that Avro records go through the Schema Registry, so the Avro example adds a schemaRegistryConfig block. Plain JSON needs no Schema Registry.

Encrypt selected fields in a JSON message

CLI
curl

          algorithm: AES256_GCM

curl \

          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}'

Encrypt selected fields in an Avro message

The config is identical, plus a schemaRegistryConfig block so Gateway can deserialize the Avro record and find the fields. This example also secures the Schema Registry with environment variables.

CLI
curl

apiVersion: gateway/v2
kind: Interceptor
metadata:
  name: field-encrypt-avro
spec:
  pluginClass: io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.EncryptPlugin
  priority: 100
  config:
    topic: ".*"
    schemaRegistryConfig:
      host: http://schema-registry:8081
      additionalConfigs:
        schema.registry.url: $${SR_URL}
        basic.auth.credentials.source: USER_INFO
        basic.auth.user.info: $${SR_BASIC_AUTH_USER_INFO}
    kmsConfig:
      vault:
        uri: http://vault:8200
        token: $${VAULT_TOKEN}
    recordValue:
      fields:
        - fieldName: email
          keySecretId: vault-kms://vault:8200/transit/keys/email-key
          algorithm: AES256_GCM
        - fieldName: ssn
          keySecretId: vault-kms://vault:8200/transit/keys/ssn-key
          algorithm: AES256_GCM
        - fieldName: phone
          keySecretId: vault-kms://vault:8200/transit/keys/phone-key
          algorithm: AES256_GCM

curl \
  --request PUT \
  --url 'http://localhost:8888/gateway/v2/interceptor' \
  --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46Y29uZHVrdG9y' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-raw '{
  "kind": "Interceptor",
  "apiVersion": "gateway/v2",
  "metadata": {
    "name": "field-encrypt-avro"
  },
  "spec": {
    "pluginClass": "io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.EncryptPlugin",
    "priority": 100,
    "config": {
      "topic": ".*",
      "schemaRegistryConfig": {
        "host": "http://schema-registry:8081",
        "additionalConfigs": {

          "basic.auth.credentials.source": "USER_INFO",
          "basic.auth.user.info": "${SR_BASIC_AUTH_USER_INFO}"
        }
      },
      "kmsConfig": {
        "vault": {
          "uri": "http://vault:8200",
          "token": "${VAULT_TOKEN}"
        }
      },
      "recordValue": {
        "fields": [
          {
            "fieldName": "email",
            "keySecretId": "vault-kms://vault:8200/transit/keys/email-key",
            "algorithm": "AES256_GCM"
          },
          {
            "fieldName": "ssn",
            "keySecretId": "vault-kms://vault:8200/transit/keys/ssn-key",
            "algorithm": "AES256_GCM"
          },
          {
            "fieldName": "phone",
            "keySecretId": "vault-kms://vault:8200/transit/keys/phone-key",
            "algorithm": "AES256_GCM"
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}'

Decrypt all fields

To return every encrypted field to the consumer, deploy a DecryptPlugin with no field list. Gateway decrypts all the fields it can, using the same KMS.

CLI
curl

apiVersion: gateway/v2
kind: Interceptor
metadata:
  name: field-decrypt-all
spec:
  pluginClass: io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.DecryptPlugin
  priority: 100
  config:
    topic: ".*"
    kmsConfig:
      vault:
        uri: http://vault:8200
        token: $${VAULT_TOKEN}

curl \
  --request PUT \
  --url 'http://localhost:8888/gateway/v2/interceptor' \
  --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46Y29uZHVrdG9y' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-raw '{
  "kind": "Interceptor",
  "apiVersion": "gateway/v2",
  "metadata": {
    "name": "field-decrypt-all"
  },
  "spec": {
    "pluginClass": "io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.DecryptPlugin",
    "priority": 100,
    "config": {
      "topic": ".*",
      "kmsConfig": {
        "vault": {
          "uri": "http://vault:8200",
          "token": "${VAULT_TOKEN}"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}'

To decrypt Avro, JSON Schema or Protobuf records, add a schemaRegistryConfig block to the DecryptPlugin config, as shown in the Avro encryption example above.

Decrypt specific fields for a user

To grant different consumers access to different fields, scope the DecryptPlugin and list only the fields that consumer may read with recordValueFields. Set the scope with metadata.scope (username, group or vCluster) in both the CLI and the API. Scenario: support agents (user support-agent) may read phone only, and the compliance team (group compliance) may read email and ssn.

CLI
curl

# Support agents can decrypt phone only
apiVersion: gateway/v2
kind: Interceptor
metadata:
  name: decrypt-support
  scope:
    username: support-agent
spec:
  pluginClass: io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.DecryptPlugin
  priority: 100
  config:
    topic: ".*"
    kmsConfig:
      vault:
        uri: http://vault:8200
        token: $${VAULT_TOKEN}
    recordValueFields:
      - phone
---
# The compliance group can decrypt email and ssn
apiVersion: gateway/v2
kind: Interceptor
metadata:
  name: decrypt-compliance
  scope:
    group: compliance
spec:
  pluginClass: io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.DecryptPlugin
  priority: 100
  config:
    topic: ".*"
    kmsConfig:
      vault:
        uri: http://vault:8200
        token: $${VAULT_TOKEN}
    recordValueFields:
      - email
      - ssn

Create the support agent Interceptor, scoped by username in metadata.scope:

curl \
  --request PUT \
  --url 'http://localhost:8888/gateway/v2/interceptor' \
  --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46Y29uZHVrdG9y' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-raw '{
  "kind": "Interceptor",
  "apiVersion": "gateway/v2",
  "metadata": {
    "name": "decrypt-support",
    "scope": {
      "username": "support-agent"
    }
  },
  "spec": {
    "pluginClass": "io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.DecryptPlugin",
    "priority": 100,
    "config": {
      "topic": ".*",
      "kmsConfig": {
        "vault": {
          "uri": "http://vault:8200",
          "token": "${VAULT_TOKEN}"
        }
      },
      "recordValueFields": [
        "phone"
      ]
    }
  }
}'

Create the compliance Interceptor, scoped by group in metadata.scope:

curl \
  --request PUT \
  --url 'http://localhost:8888/gateway/v2/interceptor' \
  --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46Y29uZHVrdG9y' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-raw '{
  "kind": "Interceptor",
  "apiVersion": "gateway/v2",
  "metadata": {
    "name": "decrypt-compliance",
    "scope": {
      "group": "compliance"
    }
  },
  "spec": {
    "pluginClass": "io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.DecryptPlugin",
    "priority": 100,
    "config": {
      "topic": ".*",
      "kmsConfig": {
        "vault": {
          "uri": "http://vault:8200",
          "token": "${VAULT_TOKEN}"
        }
      },
      "recordValueFields": [
        "email",
        "ssn"
      ]
    }
  }
}'

A support agent reads the phone field in clear text while email and ssn stay encrypted. The compliance team reads email and ssn while phone stays encrypted.

Schema-based field-level encryption

Schema-based encryption is field-level encryption where you mark the fields to encrypt in the schema itself, instead of listing them in the Interceptor. Use it when you want the schema to own the encryption rules. It needs a Schema Registry and uses the EncryptSchemaBasedPlugin.

Tag fields in your schema

Add Conduktor constraints to the fields you want to encrypt, using the default conduktor. namespace. A field is encrypted when it has a conduktor.keySecretId, a conduktor.algorithm, or a conduktor.tags value that matches a tag in the Interceptor.

JSON Schema
Avro

{
  "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
  "title": "Customer",
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "id": { "type": "string" },
    "email": {
      "type": "string",
      "conduktor.keySecretId": "vault-kms://vault:8200/transit/keys/email-key",
      "conduktor.algorithm": "AES256_GCM"
    },
    "ssn": { "type": "string", "conduktor.tags": ["PII"] },
    "phone": { "type": "string", "conduktor.tags": ["PII"] }
  }
}

{
  "type": "record",
  "name": "Customer",
  "fields": [
    {"name": "id", "type": "string"},
    {
      "name": "email",
      "type": "string",
      "conduktor.keySecretId": "vault-kms://vault:8200/transit/keys/email-key",
      "conduktor.algorithm": "AES256_GCM"
    },
    {"name": "ssn", "type": "string", "conduktor.tags": ["PII"]},
    {"name": "phone", "type": "string", "conduktor.tags": ["PII"]}
  ]
}

Here, email uses the key and algorithm set in the schema. ssn and phone carry the PII tag, so they use the defaultKeySecretId and defaultAlgorithm from the Interceptor. For the Protobuf syntax, see the encryption reference.

Encrypt fields defined in the schema

Deploy the EncryptSchemaBasedPlugin with the tags to look for and the defaults to apply.

CLI
curl

apiVersion: gateway/v2
kind: Interceptor
metadata:
  name: schema-based-encrypt
spec:
  pluginClass: io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.EncryptSchemaBasedPlugin
  priority: 100
  config:

      additionalConfigs:
        schema.registry.url: $${SR_URL}
        basic.auth.credentials.source: USER_INFO
        basic.auth.user.info: $${SR_BASIC_AUTH_USER_INFO}
    kmsConfig:
      vault:
        uri: http://vault:8200
        token: $${VAULT_TOKEN}
    defaultKeySecretId: vault-kms://vault:8200/transit/keys/pii-default-key
    defaultAlgorithm: AES256_GCM
    tags:

        "PII"
      ],
      "namespace": "conduktor."
    }
  }
}'

Decrypt schema-based fields

Decryption is the same for every field-level Interceptor, so you use the same DecryptPlugin. Because the records are Avro or JSON Schema, add a schemaRegistryConfig block. With no field list, Gateway decrypts every encrypted field.

CLI
curl

apiVersion: gateway/v2
kind: Interceptor
metadata:
  name: schema-based-decrypt
spec:
  pluginClass: io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.DecryptPlugin
  priority: 100
  config:
    topic: ".*"
    schemaRegistryConfig:
      host: http://schema-registry:8081
      additionalConfigs:
        schema.registry.url: $${SR_URL}
        basic.auth.credentials.source: USER_INFO
        basic.auth.user.info: $${SR_BASIC_AUTH_USER_INFO}
    kmsConfig:
      vault:
        uri: http://vault:8200
        token: $${VAULT_TOKEN}

curl \
  --request PUT \
  --url 'http://localhost:8888/gateway/v2/interceptor' \
  --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46Y29uZHVrdG9y' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-raw '{
  "kind": "Interceptor",
  "apiVersion": "gateway/v2",
  "metadata": {
    "name": "schema-based-decrypt"
  },
  "spec": {
    "pluginClass": "io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.DecryptPlugin",
    "priority": 100,
    "config": {
      "topic": ".*",
      "schemaRegistryConfig": {
        "host": "http://schema-registry:8081",
        "additionalConfigs": {
          "schema.registry.url": "${SR_URL}",
          "basic.auth.credentials.source": "USER_INFO",
          "basic.auth.user.info": "${SR_BASIC_AUTH_USER_INFO}"
        }
      },
      "kmsConfig": {
        "vault": {
          "uri": "http://vault:8200",
          "token": "${VAULT_TOKEN}"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}'

Combine Interceptors

You can stack encryption Interceptors to apply different strategies to different parts of your data. A common pattern is field-level encryption for known sensitive fields, with full payload encryption as a fallback for messages that don’t match. This relies on two settings:

priority: Interceptors run in priority order, lowest first.
errorPolicy: skip_already_encrypted: an encryption Interceptor skips records a previous Interceptor already encrypted.

Encrypt fields with full payload fallback

The field-level Interceptor runs first (priority 1) and encrypts email, ssn and phone. The full payload Interceptor runs second (priority 2) and encrypts anything left, skipping records that were already encrypted.

CLI
curl

# Step 1: field-level encryption (priority 1, runs first)
apiVersion: gateway/v2
kind: Interceptor
metadata:
  name: field-level-encrypt
spec:
  pluginClass: io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.EncryptPlugin
  priority: 1
  config:
    topic: "sensitive-.*"
    kmsConfig:

# Step 2: full payload fallback (priority 2, runs second)
apiVersion: gateway/v2
kind: Interceptor
metadata:
  name: full-payload-fallback
spec:
  pluginClass: io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.EncryptPlugin
  priority: 2
  config:
    topic: "sensitive-.*"
    errorPolicy: skip_already_encrypted
    kmsConfig:
      vault:
        uri: http://vault:8200
        token: $${VAULT_TOKEN}
    recordValue:
      payload:
        keySecretId: vault-kms://vault:8200/transit/keys/payload-key
        algorithm: AES256_GCM

Step 1: create the field-level Interceptor (priority 1, runs first):

curl \
  --request PUT \
  --url 'http://localhost:8888/gateway/v2/interceptor' \
  --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46Y29uZHVrdG9y' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-raw '{
  "kind": "Interceptor",
  "apiVersion": "gateway/v2",
  "metadata": {
    "name": "field-level-encrypt"
  },
  "spec": {
    "pluginClass": "io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.EncryptPlugin",
    "priority": 1,
    "config": {
      "topic": "sensitive-.*",
      "kmsConfig": {
        "vault": {
          "uri": "http://vault:8200",
          "token": "${VAULT_TOKEN}"
        }
      },
      "recordValue": {
        "fields": [
          {
            "fieldName": "email",
            "keySecretId": "vault-kms://vault:8200/transit/keys/email-key",
            "algorithm": "AES256_GCM"
          },
          {
            "fieldName": "ssn",
            "keySecretId": "vault-kms://vault:8200/transit/keys/ssn-key",
            "algorithm": "AES256_GCM"
          },
          {
            "fieldName": "phone",
            "keySecretId": "vault-kms://vault:8200/transit/keys/phone-key",
            "algorithm": "AES256_GCM"
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}'

Step 2: create the full payload fallback (priority 2, runs second):

curl \
  --request PUT \
  --url 'http://localhost:8888/gateway/v2/interceptor' \
  --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46Y29uZHVrdG9y' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-raw '{
  "kind": "Interceptor",
  "apiVersion": "gateway/v2",
  "metadata": {
    "name": "full-payload-fallback"
  },
  "spec": {
    "pluginClass": "io.conduktor.gateway.interceptor.EncryptPlugin",
    "priority": 2,
    "config": {
      "topic": "sensitive-.*",
      "errorPolicy": "skip_already_encrypted",
      "kmsConfig": {
        "vault": {
          "uri": "http://vault:8200",
          "token": "${VAULT_TOKEN}"
        }
      },
      "recordValue": {
        "payload": {
          "keySecretId": "vault-kms://vault:8200/transit/keys/payload-key",
          "algorithm": "AES256_GCM"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}'

How it works:

A message arrives on a sensitive-.* topic.
The field-level Interceptor (priority 1) runs first. If the message has email, ssn or phone, it encrypts those fields and flags the record.
The full payload Interceptor (priority 2) runs second. Because errorPolicy is skip_already_encrypted, it skips records the field-level Interceptor already handled. Records with no matching fields get full payload encryption instead.
On consume, a single DecryptPlugin handles both encryption types.

Find out more about the encryption error policy in the reference documentation.

If you also offload large messages to cloud storage, see Combine with encryption for the recommended priority order so ciphertext, not plaintext, lands in your cloud storage.
