Do QA and EM encrypt the password before sending it over the Internet to a server?

how are you accessing the sql server over the internet? I am assuming you are using sql authentication.

If VPN, vpn handles the encryption.

If you have an exposed sql server and you are accessing it by way of a TCPIP address, no encrytion is occuring by default.

Please backup all of your databases including master, msdb and model on a regular basis. I am tired of telling people they are screwed. The job you save may be your own.

I am available for consulting work. Just email me through the forum.
