Обсуждение: Whole Database or Table AES encryption
Hi, Is there any way to (virtually) encrypt whole databases or tables with AES or other types of encryption ? Regards, Aaron -- Aaron Gray Independent Open Source Software Engineer, Computer Language Researcher, Information Theorist, and amateur computer scientist.

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. You can also do column-level encryption on the server side via pgcrypto, or on the client side. -- Bruce Momjian <bruce@momjian.us> https://momjian.us EDB https://enterprisedb.com Indecision is a decision.

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 ?

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.

I was looking for open source solutions, but thanks anyway. Aaron
