12. Can the data stored on a Cloud instance be encrypted?
12.1. AWS
Yes, you can improve security by encrypting the data at rest on ephemeral drives of a Cloud instance. (A QDS Hadoop cluster uses ephemeral drives for HDFS and for the intermediate output of MapReduce jobs.) Select Enable Encryption when configuring the cluster.
