Will Transparent Data Encryption available in Enterprise edition help? I have not tried it or even read in detail about it, but you may want to investigate if that is a possibility. See details here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc278098(v=sql.100).aspxAccording to them, "Transparent data encryption (TDE) is a new encryption feature introduced in Microsoft® SQL Server™ 2008. It is designed to provide protection for the entire database at rest without affecting existing applications." |
