    Description

      In this page https://docs.mongodb.org/manual/core/security-encryption-at-rest/#encryption-process the term system key is used for what we now call the master key

      master key - The key used to encrypt the database keys and the system key (labeled system key in the referenced docs page)

      system key - The key used to encrypt the WT metadata (we probably don't need to mention that key in the docs)
