Re: Encryption

[DrFranken <midrange@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You could put your disk on SAN and encrypt it there. This only protects 
the data at rest of course but if you are worried about the data being 
left on disk in case the disks are stolen this covers that exposure at 
least.

If you're doing disk encryption I'd suggest creating a library in your encrypted ASP to do the same function as QTEMP. That's great for custom stuff.
