KeyVault.rewrapManyDataKey()
KeyVault.rewrapManyDataKey(filter, options)
-
Decrypts multiple Data Encryption Keys (DEK) and re-encrypts them with a new Customer Master Key (CMK). Use this method to rotate the CMK that encrypts your DEKs. To learn more about CMKs and DEKs, see Data Encryption Keys and the Customer Master Key.
You specify a CMK through the
masterKey
parameter. If you do not include amasterKey
argument, the method decrypts and encrypts each DEK with the CMK referenced in that DEK's metadata. To learn more about the metadata of DEKs, see Metadata Used for Decryption.KeyVault.rewrapManyDataKey
has the following syntax:let keyVault = db.getMongo().getKeyVault()
keyVault.rewrapManyDataKey(
<filter>,
<options>
)Parameter Type Description filter
query filter document The query filter for the keyvault collection options
document This document has two fields: provider
: A KMS provider (AWS KMS, Azure Key Vault, GCP KMS, the local provider, or KMIP)masterKey
: A KMS-specific key used to encrypt the new data key
Returns: A BulkWriteResult object that reports how many data keys were affected.
Back-Up Your Key Vault collection
Before you rotate your Data Encryption Keys, ensure you create a backup of your Key Vault collection. If you lose access to your Data Encryption Keys, you will lose all your encrypted data.
To learn how to create a backup of a collection, see Back Up and Restore with MongoDB Tools.
Key Rotation Support
To view your driver's dependencies for the key rotation API, see Compatibility.
Behavior
This operation is not atomic and should not be run in parallel with other key management operations.
Requires Configuring Client-Side Field Level Encryption on Database Connection
The mongosh
client-side field level encryption methods require a database connection with client-side field level encryption enabled. If the current database connection was not initiated with client-side field level encryption enabled, either:
- Use the
Mongo()
constructor from themongosh
to establish a connection with the required client-side field level encryption options. TheMongo()
method supports the following Key Management Service (KMS) providers for Customer Master Key (CMK) management:or
- Use the
mongosh
command line options to establish a connection with the required options. The command line options only support the Amazon Web Services KMS provider for CMK management.
Example
These examples allow you to rapidly evaluate client-side field level encryption. For specific examples using each supported KMS provider, see Encryption Key Management.
Create Your Encrypted Client
Use the Mongo()
constructor with the client-side field level encryption options configured to create a database connection. Replace the mongodb://myMongo.example.net
URI with the connection string URI of the target cluster.
encryptedClient = Mongo(
"mongodb://myMongo.example.net:27017/?replSetName=myMongo",
autoEncryptionOpts
)
Retrieve the KeyVault
object and use the KeyVault.rewrapManyDataKey()
method to rewrap the existing keys in a new masterKey
. If no new masterKey
is given, each data key retains its respective current masterKey
.
Rewrap Data Keys with the Current masterKey
The following example shows how you can rewrap each data key with its respective current masterKey
:
let keyVault = mongo.getKeyVault()
keyVault.rewrapManyDataKey()
Rewrap Data Keys with a New masterKey
The following example shows how you can rewrap each data key with a new masterKey
:
let keyVault = mongo.getKeyVault()
keyVault.rewrapManyDataKey({}, {
provider: 'aws',
masterKey: {
region: 'us-east-2',
key: 'arn:aws:kms:us-east-2:...'
}
})
Rewrap Data Keys That Have Not Been Rewrapped Recently
The following example shows how to rewrap data keys that have not been rewrapped in the previous thirty days.
let keyVault = mongo.getKeyVault()
const thirtyDaysAgo = new Date(Date.now() - 30 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000);
keyVault.rewrapManyDataKey({ updateDate: { $lt: thirtyDaysAgo } });
Output
KeyVault.rewrapManyDataKey()
returns a BulkWriteResult
object detailing how many data keys were affected:
{
bulkWriteResult: BulkWriteResult {
result: {
ok: 1,
writeErrors: [],
writeConcernErrors: [],
insertedIds: [],
nInserted: 0,
nUpserted: 0,
nMatched: 3,
nModified: 3,
nRemoved: 0,
upserted: [],
opTime: { ts: Timestamp({ t: 1655840760, i: 3 }), t: 23 }
}
}
