Hi,
I have a SSN field that I need to encrypt. Only persons who wants to get information about a user should be able to decrypt that field. What is the best way to encrypt and decrypt the ssn field? Thanks
I support an accounting application that uses SQL as the db engine. One of our clients is asking about encrypting of certain data within the database. The developer does not encrypt the data nor have they any plans to. My question is, can we turn on encryption of a field in one of the data tables that will not require decryption by the accounting application. In other words, if we set encryption at the db level, can the server itself decrypt the data when it's called by the application? Or does the application have to do the decryption?
Thanks in advance and please excuse my ignorance.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have never used any type of encryption for SqL Server 2000, but I have recently been asked to research what would be involved to encrypt data like social security numbers.
Since I have no idea where to begin, I was wondering if someone could point in the right direction? Do I need to buy a third party tool to perform this, are security certificates involved? Overall, I need information on everything that I need to encrypt data using SQL Server 2000, and How to perform the tasks!!!
Thank You!
Does anyone know how to use Formula Field in SQL Server 2000. I have googled a lot, but haven't been able to find out how to use it..

I am a little embarrased to be asking this question because I know that the answer must be simple but I am still a nube at SQL. I am stuck with a simple query that copies one field of data into another. Below is the script that I am trying to execute.
UPDATE table
SET field2 = field1
I get an error from SQL Server that says that the String or binary data would be truncated. I am assuming that the SQL server is trying to concatenate all the value of field1 into field2. All I am trying to do is copy the values of one field into another for each and every row in the table. Thanks in advance.
I have a table that has a int field that contains unique nubers.if I need to insert 4000 or so new records into this table using a SQLcommand how would I be able to fill this field with the next availablenumber?This will be a manual procedure done maybe once a year so the nextnumber will be known ahaed of time. but the insert command need toincrement this number by one everytime it puts a new row in.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHello,
I've been using SSIS for a while and think I get the gist of how it works (and it works nicely!).
However, because of the configuration on my machine I am constantly moving the dtsx files around (long story). Sometimes I make a full image backup and then later restore those SSIS packages.
The problem is that even if I copy the dtsx files to a different directory and then copy them back (without making any changes) I get a 'Cannot Aquire Connection' message. Other times I get errors that have to do with the encryption of the individual package. For those, I just reset the package to save with a password, save it, and then reopen it and can resave it again with the userkey encryption. This one occured when I move the packages from one machine to another.
Is there a best (or at least good) way to save packages with the sensitive data that won't force me to reconfigure it each time I move a package around? Or have to enter passwords each time?
Also, what is the advantage of saving the files in SQL Server? I assume you are not actually saving the files, just the data about them. I just don't understand it enough to even ask an intelligent question about it.
Thank you for the help.

Hello all. I have a nvarchar field in the format dd:hh:mm:ss I need to get a sum of these fields in the same format. So for example if the values are 01:23:00:00 and 00:01:00:00 then the sum of these fields should be 02:00:00:00. Can someone help me? Thanks.

This is probaly the easiest question you've ever read but here goes.
I have a simple checkbox value that i want to insert into the database but whatever i do it does not seem to let me.
Here is my code:

I would like to update a varchar field with an update statement that appends information to what is currently stored in the field, for example in the Statement field I may currently have a name (Mark) and I want to add a unique identifier to the end of the name so that it may look like, Markq1572, is there a way to do this in an update statement?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhy is it that when you change a field name is SQL Server it sometimes completely messes things up. I renamed a field in one of my tables from Emp# to EmpNumber. I had a view based on this table and naturally I knew I would have to change a view I had based on the table. I opened the view and changed the field from Emp# to EmpNumber but when I tried to open the view I got an error “Invalid column Name EMP#”. I have not been able to fix this. I have dropped and recreated the view, refreshed all the objects using enterprise manager, refreshed all the objects using Query Analyzer, shut down and restarted my computer, taken my database offline and put it back on line. The field name EMP# is not in any tables in my database and not referenced any views or procs . I am just starting on this database so I could verify this very easily because I only have a few views and procs.
Has anyone had this problem or more importantly does anyone know why this is happening or how to fix it?
What is best way to encrypt password field in sql server 2000?.
Is there any system stored procedure to encrypt password?.
What kind of algorithm password encryption method uses?.
Right-clicking "Protocols for MSSQLSERVER" under the Sql 2005 Server Configuration Manager I
find the "Force Encryption" option. Right-clicking the SQL Native Client Configuration, Client Protocols,
I find "Force Protocol Encryption"
I believe these can be used together to force the connection between a client (running the SQLNC client) and a sql 2005 server to be encrypted. In other words, the data "in motion" can be encrypted.
1. Is my understanding correct?
2. Do I need to use a certificate to make this work?
TIA,

Hi All,
I have the following requirement. I need to store the password for the connection manager in the configuration file. The sink for the configuration file is SQL Server. Though the password field appears as "******" the actual value is being taken as ""******" itself. If i update the SQL server table with the correct value, then the package starts working. But, the password is shown as clear text.
If i write logic to encrypt the password column in the configuration table, is there a way to tell the SSIS execute engine to decrypt the password before using the same for making the connection.
Is there a place holder, where i can write the decrypt code so that the decrypted password can be sent to the execution engine?
Thanks In Advance,
Madhu

when i dont use str() function i see mm.dd.yyyy ' bad version
Now, i'm using SQL server 2000 & mdf file.
mshflexgrid don't show correctly date field ( i want it to be like dd.mm.yyyy ) because i cant use str() function with SQL sever 2000 & mdf file
For example
rst.open"Select str(MyDateField) from table... occur error

What can i do. help me pls.
I have used DTS in SQL Server 2000 to import an MDB filed (MS ACCESS) of a table. When the table is imported the primary key is lost and the memo field data is completely gone.
I use the tranformation option in the DTS wizard to add the primary key and make sure the data type for the memo field is varchar and has a size of 8000. I need that large size since I am storing lots of html code.
When I preview the data I see the html code that is supposed to get imported. However, when I return all rows from the table in Enterprise Manager the field is empty.
So I tried to manually copy the data from the MS Access Database into SQL Server. Could not figure out if SQL Server has an interface like MS Access to simply copy data into a table. So I linked to the tables from MS Access to the SQL Server table.
When I opened the linked table I see the data in the description field. However, if I return the rows from within SQL Server no data is present.
I have some ASP code trying to read the data in the SQL Server table. However, nothing is returned and when I run the SQL Statement, nothing gets returned. The SQL statement returns all rows. All the other data is present but nothing in the description field.
What am I doing wrong? Any suggestions anyone, please!
TIA

I am calling my rports from the server useing URL method.I need to encript this URL please help me.
I have an application that has stores sensitive data in an SQL server and I am currently handling this through my ASP.NET application using the encryption classes in C#.
One of the things we would eventually like to be able to do is use other programs (like Microsoft Access) to run advanced Querys on the tables and retrive the data. With the encyption being done in C#/ASP all that would be returned would be the encrypted data.
I wondering if there is a way to build a layer to encrypt/decrypt data at the database level, my searches haven't yeiled to much info (As well as a trip to Borders) as I haven't seen any books that even touch on this.
I don't know a lot about SQL right now (Mainly only MySQL so Stored Procs and all that stuff are really new to me) so I don't know if I would go about it this way or not? (Using a stored procedure)
Can anyone reccommened where I should start to learn about accomplishing this? Books are usually the best help but I'll take any kind of information that can be thrown my way :-)
Thanks!

Hi,
I have creating a stored procedure in sql server 2005 to encrypt a parameter value that comes from an asp.net page. this value is of type varchar.
Now i have declared a paramater as varbinary to accept this value in the stored procedure. And encrypting it using symmetric key which is encrypted by certificate.
Now when i enter a value into the textbox in asp.net page. it shows
"implicit conversion from varchar to varbinary not possible" pls tell me what is the solution? do i have to convert the value in vb code while accessing the value of the textbox or do i have to convert the value while passing the value when call stored procedure.
pls tell me the solution so that i don't jave to change any coding in vb.
some solution in sql server itselt.
