Hi All,

If someone can access to database file and have password, he/she can view data inside.

I want to build an application which has embedded an encryption key and all data stored in firebird db is encrypted using this key.
So, anymore has access to the db file will only see junk.

Has anyone done so, like building an encryption layer between the app and the db?

Issue concern:
1) Performance issue as all data transfer need encryption and decryption.
2) Data type - encrypted currency might look like *yw>9)q01. How to store them? All varchar fields?

Thanks.
