Re: Database encryption & security

I am doing this for a client. He has access to the database through
his control panel of his web host. I want it to be encrypted so he
can't read the data. It's not that I don't want him to see it, but
that there is data which clients might not want him to see. I also
have access to the database, and they might not want me to see it
either. So, basically, when you go to PHPadmin, it should be
encrypted. Does that make sense?

Also, if anyone was to hack into the database somehow, I don't want
them to be able to read the data.

Thanks,
Sharon
