With SQL Server 2005 encryption:
1. Is it possible to encrypt a column "in place" - or do we always need to create a new varbinary column to hold the encrypted column? Some products (NetLib Encryptionizer) seem to be able to encrypt an existing column in place.
2.If you encrypt an existing column to a new varbinary column, it it customary to then ALTER the table and delete the existing plain-text column?
Thanks...
Hello,I have been researching the use of symmetic and asymmetic encryption inSQL 2005 and I am pretty excited to give it a try. Through examples, Ican encrypt the data, but I cant figure out what to do next...What I want:1. our social security field to be encrypted so that only the person(s)that need it can decrypt it.2. prevent DBA's from decrypting the data themselfs3. Simple way to encrypt the data on the table (maybe a trigger?)I thought I would use asymmetric keys, this way I can embed the publickey into my data warehouse process to encrypt the data.I thought I would prompt the user for the private key when the reportruns, that way I wont store the key on the server.This would be a place to start.Someone in the office said that we can store the keys in Activedirectory, so maybe I could make this seemless to the user running thereport?I've found a lot of great articles that got me started, but I amneeding the next stepAny Ideas would be apprecitated!TIARoblinks to articles I have found handy:http://www.databasejournal.com/feat...int.php/3483931http://www.devx.com/dbzone/Article/29232/0/page/3http://www.sqlservercentral.com/col...rintversion.asp

Hi,
Is there any possible way, that while I transferring a table from another table, I can specifically encrypt a column? Is there any step on how can I do this?

We are planning to store the pin number in a sqlserver table. This column has to be encrypted and stored in the database. As new records are added this column needs to encrypted automatically. Please advise me of any tools.

Hi
There is a very sensitive table that holds a very sensitive field (i.e. a person's salary). I have a requirement to programmatically encrypt it when the value is stored (I can do that quite easily in the VB client app), but there are times when a suitably 'sa' user should be allowed to perform a SELECT of the table and to view the salary field in the clear.
I think a SQL2000 user-defined function can do the job. The catch is that the client is running SQL 7 and he will only upgrade 'over his dead body', or words to that effect.
Appreciate any ideas you can give!
Cheers & TIA
Is there any way i could apply encryption on a varchar type column without changing its datatype to varbinary.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI need to encrypt some column level data in multiple tables in SQL server 2014. I've never tried encryption in SQL server 2014. How can I achieve it?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to implement the column encryption on one of the tables, have used the below link as the reference and got stuck at the last step.
[URL] ....
I have completed the following steps so far.
- CREATE MASTER KEY ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = ‘myStrongPassword’
- CREATE CERTIFICATE MyCertificateName
WITH SUBJECT = 'A label for this certificate'
- CREATE SYMMETRIC KEY MySymmetricKeyName WITH
IDENTITY_VALUE = 'a fairly secure name',
ALGORITHM = AES_256,
[Code] .....
Example by using the function
EXEC OpenKeys
-- Encrypting
SELECT Encrypt(myColumn) FROM myTable
-- Decrypting
SELECT Decrypt(myColumn) FROM myTable
When I ran the last command :
-- Decrypting
SELECT Decrypt(myColumn) FROM myTable
I get the following error :
Msg 257, Level 16, State 3, Line 2
Implicit conversion from data type nvarchar to varbinary is not allowed. Use the CONVERT function to run this query.
Where will I use the convert function, in decrypt function or in select statement?
I have created two user defined functions for encryption and decryption using passphrase mechanism. When I call encryption function, each time I am getting the different values for the same input. While I searching a particular value, it takes long time to retrieve due to calling decryption function for each row.
best way to encrypt and decrypt using user defined functions.Below is the query which is taking long time.
SELECT ID FROM table WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE dbo.DecodeFunction(column) = 'value'
When I try to use symetric or asymetric encryption, I am not able to put "OPEN SYMETRIC KEY" code in a function. So, I am using PassPhrase mechanism.
I want to enforce a unique constraint on a column which must be encrypted in MSSQL 2005 using Cell Level Encyption (CLE).
CREATE MASTER KEY ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'itsaSECRET!!!3£3£3£!!!'
CREATE CERTIFICATE ERCERT WITH SUBJECT = 'A cert for use by procs'
CREATE SYMMETRIC KEY ERKEY
WITH ALGORITHM = AES_256
ENCRYPTION BY CERTIFICATE ERCERT
[Code] ....
The output makes it obvious why the constraint has 'not' been enforced.

But, how do I work around this?
Hi, all experts here,
Thank you very much for your kind attention.
I am confused on key column of case table and key time column of nested table by using Time Series algorithm.
In my case, the case table structure is as below:
Territory key text (the ID is actually dimrisk_key, in this case, I use the name column binding to combine the Territory column of case table Dimrisks),
While the nested table structure is as below:
Cal_month key time (in this case, actually the ID is dimdate_key, again, I used name column bining property to bind the Cal_month to the ID)
So my question is, as the key column of case table has been set to be Territory, as a result, does the model training still cover all the cases (rows) based on the ID of the table?
Also, in the nested table, as the key time column has been set to Cal_month rather than Dimdate_key of the nested table, as a result, would the single series based on the cal_month?
Hope it is clear for your advices and help.
And I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,
I want to perform column level and database level encryption/decryption....
Does any body have that code written in C# or VB.NET for AES-128, AES-192, AES-256 algorithms...
I have got code for single string... but i want to encrypt/decrypt columns and sometimes the whole database...
Can anybody help me out...
If you have Store procedure in SQL for the same then also it ll do...
Thanks in advance
1. Is it legal and OK to use a MSDN SQL copy on a production environment or is it strickly for test environments ??
2. If I own a legal copy of SQL 7 with 5 cals, can I legally use SQL MSDE and have more than 5 people access my SQL server or am I also limited to 5 users as my original ??
Sorry I am a newbie at this SQL thing.
I was wondering if anyone out there knows if it is possible to encrypt a particular field in a table, or encrypt a whole table. The info would remain on my database and not be sent out anywhere, but I just want an extra level of security against anyone who might try to break into the database.

Hello,
I am needing to migrate an Access database to Sql Server
Express. This database will be distributed as part of a
VB 6 application. This database will have some of the
columns encrypted. My understanding is that SQL Server
Express supports encryption. We will need to be able to
run queries on encrypted data like this, with
LastName being an encrypted column in the database.
Select LastName from Account where LastName = 'Smith'
Select LastName from Account where LastName Like 'Sm%'
Update Account Set where LastName = sLastName
Can this be done using SQL Server 2005 Express and VB 6?
Thanks!

I am using server 2005 running on a windows server 2003 platform. I am trying to do field encryption using symmetric key implemented by the AES algorithm. I created an AES key and apparently it encrypts the data with no problem, however when I try to retrieve the data after decryption the field is always null. I tried using the same process while using the DES or RC2 algorithm and I could both encrypt and decrypt information, however it does not decrypt for any of the AES algorithm i.e. AES_128, AES_192 and AES_256. Attached is a simple query I used to test it.
create symmetric key CCardKeys
with algorithm = aes_192
encryption by password = 'P@s$w0rD'
open symmetric key CCardKeys
decryption by password = 'P@s$w0rD'
declare @Id varchar(50)
set @Id = encryptbykey(key_guid('CCardKeys'),'Test')
select convert(varchar(50),decryptbykey(@Id))
close symmetric key CCardKeys
Is there something I'm missing with AES.
Thanks for taking the time to help me.
Here is my goal please let me know if it is possible.
I have installed sql express on clients machines. I don't want them to be able to view the sp's or the functions. I would like to go as far as not allowing them to see the tables. I tried with encrption but this is still breakable by the user using the DAC.

I have a user table with Fields:
UID, name, SSN, phone,address. I need to encrypt all the fields except UID. My company recently moved to sql server 2005 and I have to encrypt old data. We do perform query search based on username and SSN
I have very shallow knowledge of encryption and indexes. I did looked at one of the articles on encrypting data on existing application but could not understand the indexing part(:()
Do i have to define new fields with varbinary as datatype(for ssn, name,phone number) ? I am asking this because in the demo only ssn_index has varbinary and the ssn field is still nvarchar?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
