Data encryption between client and remote server |
Mon, Nov 28 2011 1:01 PM | Permanent Link |
George | Enhancing encryption requires a lot of effort especially with the frequent
updates and fixes. Encrypted databases protects data on site, and added safeguards within the intranet further enhance security. If enhanced data encrytion >=128 bit (and compression) is ONLY NEEDED ON DATA TRANSAMISSION BETWEEN SERVER AND CLIENT, (with default edb encryption on server databases/files), what would be the best approach to achieve this scheme? Would this option be possible to incorporate in later versions/builds? Thanks, George Patena |

David Cornelius Cornelius Concepts | ElevateDB already has encryption support--so does DBISAM (EDB's older
brother). It's one of the big reasons I've used the Elevate Soft products as opposed to something like Firebird.

<< If enhanced data encrytion >=128 bit (and compression) is ONLY NEEDED ON DATA TRANSAMISSION BETWEEN SERVER AND CLIENT, (with default edb encryption on server databases/files), what would be the best approach to achieve this scheme? >> It would be virtually impossible for you to do such changes yourself. The password keys are all 128-bit currently, and a lot would need to be changed in order to support longer keys. It's something that I've got on the list for EDB 3, including AES support and possible public/private keys for the comms. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |

I can rest assure and continue our development effort on ElevateDB, knowing enhancements on encryption is planned. This is important as minimum encryption levels are required in industrial applications requiring data security. Thanks. George Patena |
