how to work around with lack of security?

[alexhaifa]

Hello,

Something very bad is in firebird, the user and password to access the database file is kept into the server and not into the data file (.FDB) - We haven't had this option so far, unfortunately.

I developed a dictionary system that is going to be sold to many clients, but I'd like that
anyone could copy my database and open it into its firebird installed in any computer, nowadays it is possible only using the default user and password

I'd like to protect my data against any possibility to be access without my system.

How to work around with this? is there any way with any component?

thanks
Alexandre

To protect your data, you can use data encryption. IBDAC supports data encryption using the TIBCEncryptor component. Take into account, that this component is available only in Professional and Trial Editions. See more details about data encryption in the IBDAC documentation: h[url]ttp://www.devart.com/ibdac/docs/encryption.htm[/url]
