Does anyone know if there are any plans to introduce data encryption
into the database? I'm not talking about encryption on data in flight,
Ingres/Net can handle that quite adequately. What I want is to be able
to encrypt data when stored in the database and ensure that unless the
proper key is given that the data displayed is gobbeldygook.
If you ask me, the database's job is to store and retrieve data. I would
leave the task of encryption to the device. For example:
