SQL 2012 :: Force Encryption With DoD Certificate
Sep 15, 2015
I have a SQL Server 2012 Standard and needed to fulfill a requirement to set Force Encryption on the Server with a DoD Certificate.
I will be altering my client connections to use Encrypt=True; TrustServerCertificate=True (The client is a .Net Web Application).
The OS is where SQL Server 2012 Standard resides is Windows 2008 R2 DataCenter Service Pack 1 64-bit.
What I am needing to know is where do I get the DoD Certificate from? and Do I just install it on the server where SQL Server resides?

I have a customer who is looking to encrypt their applications connection to the back-end SQL server. I've gotten a valid certificate for the server from a trusted CA, and it's installed on the server (shows up in Personal certificates in the Certificate MMC when selecting the computer) and I can choose it in the drop down on the certificates tab of the SQL Network protocols properties in Configuration Manager.
Now, my question: If I select the certificate but do NOT enable the "Force Encryption" option, the client will be able to request encryption on their end, and the connection will then be encrypted. If the client (other applications) do NOT request encryption, they will still be able to connect, but their connection will be un-encrypted. URL....
Lastly, I could've swore I had found some information indicating that some methods of establishing a connection to SQL can fail when Force Encryption is enabled, as the method doesn't support SSL encryption.

I am trying to create a encrypted row in my database Everything here worked except that when i run the final query to decrypt the data It just comes up with null for each row. Even if i do a query to show me the rows that are not null It's like it is saying yeah there is data here but I am only going to show you null instead of what I am supposed to decrypt.Here is what I tried from start to finish Create Certificate
TestCert
Encryption By Password = 'Password'
With Subject = 'SQLCert',
Expiry_Date = '12/01/2050';
declare @Test nvarchar(50)
set @Test='123456789'
insert into testenc (testencry)
Values
(encryptbyCert(Cert_ID('TestCert'),@Test ))
select convert (Nvarchar(50),
DecryptByCert(Cert_ID('TestCert'),
testencry,N'Password')) As Test
from testenc

i'm totally stuck, i know i must be missing something, just can't find it.. here's my situation:
tbl_user (ssn char(9), ssn_encrypted varchar(9));
CREATE CERTIFICATE AUTOCERT WITH SUBJECT = 'Salad', EXPIRY_DATE = '1/1/2099';GO
UPDATE tbl_userset ssn_encrypted = encryptbycert(cert_id('AUTOCERT'),SSN)go
select ssn, ssn_encrypted from tbl_user
results look good. encryption worked.
SELECT ssn, decryptbycert(cert_id('AUTOCERT'),ssn_encrypted) FROM tbl_user
results of select statement show ssn_encrypted = null for every record.
why is it null? how can i get decryption to work?

I want to configure SQL 2k5 Express so that all connections are
encrypted. I've found the documentation that gives the How-To steps,
but I don't see the SSL option in the Network Configuration.
Is this possible with the Express edition?
Do I need to do something special with the installation?
Thanks,
OldSam

Hello,
We have a couple of databases set up, and we replicate data from certain tables between the two database. One of the tables we replicate is the Users table, in which we'd like to encrypt user passwords. Initially I created a certificate on both servers, and found that I could not DecryptByCert a password that was encrypted on the other server, and vice versa. It looks like all I was forgetting to do with supply a 'ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = ' parameter to CREATE CERTIFICATE. So, now I have the following:
CREATE CERTIFICATE Cert_UserPassword
ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'pGFD4bb925DGvbd2439587y'
WITH SUBJECT ='TestingCertificate'
I ran that query on both of our servers, and I find I am able to decrypt the password on both servers. So, as far as I can tell, this is exactly the way I want it to work.
So, now for the question: Is this the right way to go about it? In order to decrypt the password on either server, it means I need to pass the 'pGFD4bb925DGvbd2439587y' password to the DecryptByCert command, which doesn't seem very secure. But if I don't use the 'ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD', then the cert will be signed by the Master key, which is different on both servers, which will result in a certificate that can't decrypt what was encrypted on the other server.
Is there a way to take the actual certificate on one server, and export it to the other server, so that they're both using the exact same certificate to encrypt and decrypt? I would like to not have the password included in the Decryption command, if I can help it.
Thanks.

I am connection to a SQL server that has force protocol encryption checked. From my ASP.net application, specifically in my connection string, what parameter do I need to use to take advantage of this encryption?
Thanks!

Log shows (on SS2005)
A self-generated certificate was successfully loaded for encryption?
No encryption is used. Properties of Protocol for MSSQLSERVER shows no for Force Encryption, certificates are empty
How, why, where from and what for does it get and load self-generated certificate?

Hi,
i've enabled the certification authentication login i use SQL 2K5 ENT
my problem is like that: in the client network utility i check the Force protocol encryption and connect
to the server the client can't connect because he doesn't have the certificate install on his machine which it's OK.
the problem is when i remove the Force protocol encryption on the client he connect successfully without the
certificate install on his machine or any thing.
i double check that on the server i've YES on the Force Encryption in the protocols For MSSQLSERVER.
why is that???
THX

Hi,
I am at a loss here, unless I misunderstand the whole point about server encryption. My 2005 SQL server has a certificate from a trust CA, I have turned on the 'force encryption' flags on the server. My understanding is any client will be "force" to connect with encryption?? I found out that unless I turn on encryption on my clients, the server will allow connections without the requiring encryption. Am I missing something here? Thanks for any help you can provide.

I would like to force only certain users on certain databases to use encrypted connections for accessing our 2005 SQL Server. I've found a clunky way to do it, via registering a login event notification and using the kill statement. However, that's ugly, and I don't think there is any guarantee that the event will always fire before an evil client could get off a few evil commands. Is this supported, or is the only supported feature the forceencryption option, which is server-wide?

We are unable to login in database due to “The server could not load the certificate it needs to initiate an SSL connection. It returned the following error: 0x80090331. Check certificates to make sure they are valid. Unable to initialize SSL encryption because a valid certificate could not be found, and it is not possible to create a self-signed certificate.”we have tried to run that selfssl.exe from command prompt followed by below command and am getting the cryptographic error.

I am accessing a SQL2005 Express SP1 Server via TCP/IP (all machines fully up to date with windows update). For ease of configuration the Server IP is mapped to an Alias in Native Client Configuration Manager. On the Client Force Protocol Encryption is set to Yes and Trust Server Certificate is set to No. The clients are accessing the DB via SQL 2005 Management studio express and Ms Access 2003 (an access adp front end to the sql database).
As a test i turned off force encryption on the server. A Network trace shows no encryption! Turning on force encryption on the server corrects this.
As a further test I configured the server with a certificate the client doesn't trust. No error is generated by the un-trusted certificate! The only way to generate the certificate error is to enable encryption in the connection properties of each application. Why isn't the Native Client Configuration Manager utility enforcing this???
This brings me on to a second (off-topic problem). In my access adp file, if I enable use encryption for data? advanced option under the database connection dialog all works as expected (encryption + certificate verification). However, I am programmatically updating the connection in VBA
Application.CurrentProject.OpenConnection "Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Data Source=AliasName;Use Encryption for Data=True;..."
If I do this no encryption is enabled!!! Access seems to just ignore the encryption statement.
Has anybody got any ideas as to why either of these issues are occurring or if there are any workarounds?
Thanks
Stuart

I have SQL Server 2012 and want to encrypt my connections by using a wildcard [URL] ssl certificate from a trusted party. After installing my certificate i want to selecti in in de SQL Server Configuration Manager but the certificate does not appear in the properties of protocols.
In older versions it was possible to add the thumprint of my certificate to the registry, but in this version that result into a sql server that cannot be started anymore.

We are in the process of deploying security software that will change AD service accounts automatically every 90 days. I was wondering if changing the password on accounts used for SSRS certificates will break the certs? Are there any other gotchas we should be concerned about with automated password changes in SQL?

I have a stored procedure which returns a result set as follows:
(Headers)Total,WV1,WV2,WV3,WV4,WV5.....
(Example data) "Some total name",1,2,3,4,5.....
The WV1, WV2, WV3 column names will be different depending on parameters passed to the stored procedure. In other words, the column names or number of columns aren't fixed (apart from "Total").
What I would like to be able to do is to just force SSRS to use the column headers supplied by the stored procedure as the column names in the report.

I am working to set up encryption of my database. am trying to implement a process proposed by the DoD Standard Technical Implementation Guide (STIG) and cannot figure it out. I am using SQL 2012 and the requirement is to
A: Run the following to create a certificate:
USE <'database name'>
CREATE CERTIFICATE <'certificate name'>
ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = '<'password'>'
FROM FILE = <'path/file_name'>
WITH SUBJECT = 'name of person creating key',
EXPIRY_DATE = '<'expiration date: yyyymmdd'>'
This script did not work – I did not know what file it was referencing and it kept erroring out, so I used my own process as follows
USE master
GO
CREATE MASTER KEY ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'mY_P@$$w0rd'
CREATE CERTIFICATE certificate_name
WITH SUBJECT = 'Certificate for my database'
[code]....
This also error out, but my questions are the following:
-What would the symmetric key be encrypting?
-The application that is using the database is IIS, so would there be a problem with it communicating with the database?
-Does the key need to be installed on that IIS server?
-Do I need to apply the encryption to the database, column or table.

Hi, We are trying to implement Service Broker between SQL Server Express and SQL Server on the Same machine and we are having problems with certificates. We are creating a certificate on SQL Server, backing up the certificate on a file system and then loading certificate on the SQL Server Express from the file and we are keep getting the following error: Msg 15208, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The certificate, asymmetric key, or private key file does not exist or has invalid format.
Following script runs fine on SQL Server.
Code Snippet
use master
Create Master Key Encryption BY Password = '45Gme*3^&fwu';
BACKUP MASTER KEY TO FILE = 'C:ServiceBrokerPrivateKeyMasterB.pvk'
ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = '45Gme*3^&fwu'
Create Certificate EndPointCertificateC
WITH Subject = 'C.Server.Local',
START_DATE = '06/01/2006',
EXPIRY_DATE = '01/01/2008'
ACTIVE FOR BEGIN_DIALOG = ON;
BACKUP CERTIFICATE EndPointCertificateC
TO FILE = 'C:ServiceBrokerEndPointCertificateC.cer'
Following script runs on SQL Server Express:
Code Snippet
Create Certificate EndPointCertificateC
From FILE = 'C:ServiceBrokerEndPointCertificateC.cer'
WITH PRIVATE KEY (
FILE = 'C:ServiceBrokerPrivateKeyMasterB.pvk',
DECRYPTION BY PASSWORD = '45Gme*3^&fwu'
);
If we run the script other way around, it works fine. If we use the SQL Server on some other machine, the script works fine. But only on the same machine, it throws this error. We made sure the permissions and everything. Let us know if there is any work around or what are we doing wrong.
Any help is appreciated. Thank you,

We have a large VMWare environment with HP SAN, and 2 datacenters - primary and DR, with SAN based replication between them.We also backup databases to tape via Commvault and send them off-site using a vendor.TDE protects data at 'rest', meaning, (that if it wasn't implemented, and) if someone got a hold of our physical .mdf/.ldf files, or our .bak's, or tapes, they could recover the data.

I have setup ssl encryption for SQL connections by using a self-signed certificate (not the best I know) and setting "Force Encryption" to Yes. Now I am trying to show that the connection is indeed encrypted and I like to see which the ssl-key is used for a connection; preferably the one that I provided. How can I do this? I am just not comfortable trusting the OS or SQL to do what I ask.The query "SELECT encrypt_option FROM sys.dm_exec_connections" Shows incrypted but no extra info.

In cases when the SSIS package has to be deployed in SQL Server, when we use ProtectionLevel ="server storage" while creating SSIS Catalog, does it use TDE? or Database Standard Encryption? if the database is using TDE?

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 have an SSIS package built by another developer, and now that I'm running it under my login the passwords won't save. The solution and packages are setup with ProtectionLevel EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey, but how do I get the User Key to reset so I can now save passwords? I can re-enter them, but whenever I enter hte password and test it then click OK it still has the red arrow next to the connection as if there's an error. I can create new connections and those passwords save fine, but with 40-50 items in this package I hate the thought of having to go into each and change the connection.
I tried changing the package and solution to DontSaveSensitive then rebuilding and closing then reopening, I hoped there was some option to reset the User Key just as if I created the solution. If this option doesn't exist why?
