Let me start by saying that the instance of SQL Server 2012 I am attempting to set up TDE (Transparent Data Encryption) on, is the Enterprise edition.
However, when following the MSDN tutorial tutorial, I get to the following line:
create database encryption key with algorithm = AES_256 encryption by server certificate TDECertificate
and I get the error:
Msg 33117, Level 16, State 1, Line 6
T
I am new to using TDE for SQL Server and one of the requirements that a client has is that their database be encrypted using a different key that is unique to only their database. I was wondering if that is possible and how that is accomplished.
In addition to regular onsite backups (kept in a fire resistant safe), we also send tapes offsite once a month, encrypted with AES. So if our site is one day vaporised by an alien heat ray, we should at least have one recent backup to recover from.
Except that the 128-bit encryption key is only stored onsite.
I'm using a QNAP-439 Pro II SAN at home. Full disk encryption is currently enabled. But since you take a 80% performance hit by enabling encryption I'm thinking about disabling encryption on the SAN and offloading it to Windows Server 2008 R2 Machine that I'm currently building anyway.
The SAN is operating on 4x2TB disks in RAID6 mode.
It's a server which listens at https://. It uses a self-signed cert. So, each time when I access it, I will be prompted to trust this untrusted site. However, I always get the following error in the server log.
#1 I'm very new to the ubuntu home directory encryption or rather ecryptfs
folder encryption. I read about the same within Dustin's blog & tried
implementing it.
Problem or query is
my home directory is encrypted & has a www folder ...
I connected to a Windows Server 2008 R2 shared folder from a Mac OS X Mountain Lion computer over the Internet using this command:
mount -t smbfs //user@server/path/to/share local_folder
Is traffic encrypted by default? What settings do I look at (if any) to know whether it was encrypted? If it wasn't encrypted, what's the easiest way to encrypt it?
