Build

You can build the RPM / DEB packages for pgcryptokey using pig build:

pig build pkg pgcryptokey         # build RPM / DEB packages

Install

You can install pgcryptokey directly. First, make sure the PGDG and PIGSTY repositories are added and enabled:

pig repo add pgsql -u          # Add repo and update cache

Install the extension using pig or apt/yum/dnf:

Install
pig install pgcryptokey;          # Install for current active PG version
pig
pig ext install -y pgcryptokey -v 18  # PG 18
pig ext install -y pgcryptokey -v 17  # PG 17
pig ext install -y pgcryptokey -v 16  # PG 16
pig ext install -y pgcryptokey -v 15  # PG 15
pig ext install -y pgcryptokey -v 14  # PG 14
dnf
dnf install -y pgcryptokey_18       # PG 18
dnf install -y pgcryptokey_17       # PG 17
dnf install -y pgcryptokey_16       # PG 16
dnf install -y pgcryptokey_15       # PG 15
dnf install -y pgcryptokey_14       # PG 14
apt
apt install -y postgresql-18-pgcryptokey   # PG 18
apt install -y postgresql-17-pgcryptokey   # PG 17
apt install -y postgresql-16-pgcryptokey   # PG 16
apt install -y postgresql-15-pgcryptokey   # PG 15
apt install -y postgresql-14-pgcryptokey   # PG 14

Create Extension:

CREATE EXTENSION pgcryptokey CASCADE;  -- requires: pgcrypto

Usage

pgcryptokey: Cryptographic key management for PostgreSQL

pgcryptokey manages cryptographic data encryption keys within PostgreSQL. Keys are stored encrypted and secured by access passwords, supporting both system-wide and per-session key access.

CREATE EXTENSION pgcryptokey;

Key Management Functions

FunctionDescription
create_cryptokey(name, byte_len)Generate a new cryptographic key
set_cryptokey(name)Set the active key for operations
get_cryptokey(name)Retrieve key material
drop_cryptokey(name)Remove a key
supersede_cryptokey()Rotate to a new key (same access password)
change_key_access_password()Update key authentication credentials
reencrypt_data()Re-encrypt data with a different key

Session Control

FunctionDescription
get_shared_key()Establish client/server shared secret (SSL/Unix only)
set_session_access_password()Client-supplied password authentication

Typical Workflow

-- Create a key
SELECT create_cryptokey('mykey', 32);

-- Set active key
SELECT set_cryptokey('mykey');

-- Encrypt data using pgcrypto functions with the managed key
UPDATE secrets SET data = pgp_sym_encrypt(plaintext, get_cryptokey('mykey'));

-- Decrypt data
SELECT pgp_sym_decrypt(data, get_cryptokey('mykey')) FROM secrets;

-- Rotate key
SELECT supersede_cryptokey();

Access passwords can be configured at database boot time for system-wide access, or per-session by individual clients for granular security control.
