Hi,
Is there any way to (virtually) encrypt whole databases or tables with
AES or other types of encryption ?
You can use storage encryption via the operating system. Cybertec has a
patch for PG 12 and the community is working on an implementation,
perhaps for PG 16.
I would be very interested in this, are there any further pointers as
to where to look at this ?
Is there a repo branch in place working on this or any documentation ?
Cheers,
Aaron
There is a commercial product which supports database encryption, including PostgreSQL, it's called Voltage:

The company that I work for uses it to encrypt data in both Oracle and PostgreSQL databases.
