I'm from Cape Town. And the company I work for supply software to the
fuel industry - we have 700 Firebird installations throughout Southern Africa.

As Lester said, the best idea may well be to lock the server in a
box. Any encryption system, with enough time,. can be broken. The
best way of implementing security may well be to implement better
physical security, rather than better data security.
