With ServiceNow's deprecation of the GlideEncrypter API (used for Triple DES encryption) and its planned complete removal by the Xanadu release in Q4 2024, Perspectium will be releasing a new version of the Perspectium Core application for ServiceNow to remove the dependency on GlideEncrypter and to be able to continue supporting Triple DES as an encryption method.
This version is planned for release in the first half of 2024 to give time for customers to upgrade to the new approach before the GlideEncrypter API is removed.
This support will use a JavaScript library to encrypt Triple DES and will be backwards compatible with the DataSync Agent and meshlets so you will not have to upgrade the Agent or meshlet.
