database encryption
Posted: Fri Jan 09, 2009 6:36 pm
Hello,
I am creating an application that store sensitive data. Because of the type of application , I am actually saving the data in xml format. So for example I could have name, address, phone and social security.
Should I just encrypt the whole thing or just sensitive data. ?
In general , how taxing it the encryption and decryption process for the mysql database?
Thank you
