Core Concepts

  • TDF Ciphertext - Ciphertext encrypted using the open TDF specification. Each /i TDF /i Ciphertext is encrypted with a unique data key and managed with independent access controls. See the Developer Hub and TDF whitepaper for more information.
  • Virtru Policy - A policy specifying access controls that will be enforced on encrypted data, such as expiry and authorized users.
  • User - An entity authenticated with Virtru. SDK users can allow other users access to encrypted data. For instance, bob@virtru.com can authorize alice@virtru.com to access some encrypted data at either encryption-time or any time afterwards.
