Обсуждение: Encryption functions
Hi,<br /><br />Are there any encryption functions that can be used in SQL inserts and selects directly ? For example
like"select encryptin_function('test_to_be_encrypted'), ........"<br /><br />Thanks and regards,<br />-Thusitha<br />

See the contrib/pgcrypto module. It has functions like digest()
for making SHA1, MD5, and other digests; hmac() for making Hashed
Message Authentication Codes; and encrypt()/encrypt_iv() and
decrypt()/decrypt_iv() for doing encryption and decryption. Since
8.1 pgcrypto also has functions for doing OpenPGP symmetric and
public-key encryption.

If your requirements are simpler check out the genpass module. It is a
DES3 encrypted type. You can do things like "SELECT * FROM table WHERE
passw = 'hello'" and it will find passwords that are entered as 'hello'
even though they are stored encrypted. Example:
darcy=# select 'hello'::chkpass; chkpass
----------------:v1L3NdWy0OHlQ
(1 row)
darcy=# select ':v1L3NdWy0OHlQ'::chkpass = 'hello';?column?
----------t
(1 row)
darcy=# select ':v1L3NdWy0OHlQ'::chkpass = 'nothello';?column?
----------f
(1 row)
Note that the leading colon says that the string is already encrypted.
This allows dump and restore to work correctly.

Thanks Michael, I'll check that module.<br /><br /><br /><b><i>Michael Fuhr <mike@fuhr.org></i></b>
