Rotate Key

For enhanced security, you should create a new encryption key instead of using the key that is included out of the box with Multifront.

 

To rotate key:

 

1.Login to the Multifront administration website. The Dashboard page is displayed.

 

2.On the top menu, click Rotate Key under Advanced. Key Rotation - Confirmation Required page is displayed.

 

3.Click Generate. Message is displayed.

 

Caution: Generating a new key will make previously encrypted data un-readable (for ex: Merchant Gateway Settings, SMTP Settings, etc). Key generation should only be done for a new storefront and should never be attempted on a storefront running in production.

 

Key generation will not impact customer or product data.
