data encryption

  • Hi All,

     

    do we have any option or tool to encrypt the data in sql server as we can do in oracle called scrambling.

     

    Thanks,

     

  • Not sure about Oracle,but Netlib and Protegrity have encryption utilities.

  • If its for application security such as password storage (one way encryption only), try undiocumented functions pwdencrypt() and pwdcompare(). Otherwise you'll have to resort to third party software/calls.

  • Steve,

    What is you experience with the performance hit to a server running these utilities?
