ENCRYPTION over the Internet ?????

  • Network Structure:

    I have a proxy server + IIS behind and SQL server behind the firewall on the same network as the IIS/Proxy Server.

    I am using replication over the internet and I also use DTS packages over the internet.

    I want to encrypt the data transfer over the internet.

    Question:

    Does the Certification Encryption setup of SQL Server encrypt the Snapshot.CAB files, and data transfers initiated by DTS, and during the replication process.

    And has anyone secured data transfer over the internet. and how.

    thank you,

    jameel.

    I have multiple MSDE machines that will be involved in replication over the internet to a central server.

    How can I encrypt the replication data packets over the web?

  • Don't know about encryption for SQL Server, but you could use a VPN tunnel to make sure all data passing is encrypted.

  • IPSec comes to mind. If you don't have a VPN solution, this gives you the option of something close. But it's not exactly going to be easy.
