Encryption

Recommended Posts

Do any of you here have a preferred encryption algorithm? I'm writing a small database system and think that the info there should be encrypted and appreciate feedback. Thanks!

Sorry for the joke post.   :)

Oh boy I didn't realize you were joking :D that's kind of a cool code that I didn't know about before, though.

AES 256 is the actual standard.

Yes, but is that necessary? I mean for the most part anything encrypted should be pretty much isolated and non accessible by anyone other than the user that created the DB... would a weaker algorithm suffice?

Anything else is considered not secure in 2016.

 

Other considerations are how sensitive is the data that needs to be encrypted.

Oh please. -_- These responses are ridiculous.

I use AES encryption for my company's files myself, but there are several valid encryption algorithms.

  • AES 128/192/256
  • Kerberos
  • RC4
  • DESX
  • Blowfish
  • GOST
  • and etc
