Hi,

We are deciding to Encrypt data when we send/receive to/from Database. So I think we need to use UniEncryptor. But I don't find any documentation on it. Will it work with my existing application without much modification. We use uniQuery a lot for view/insert/delete data.

Please advice.

Thank You.

Hello.

TUniEncryptor is used in conjunction with TUniQuery or TUniTable. TUniEncryptor works as follows. When changing data via TUniQuery or TUniTable using Insert/Edit/Post, then the linked TUniEncryptor component will encrypt the specified fields only for the current edited record. Similarly, this component will decrypt data in these fields when opening DataSet. If you have a table filled with unencrypted data, then using this component will encrypt only added or changed records. Unchanged records will not be encrypted.
Note that not all data types can be encrypted.
You can find more detailed information on using TUniEncryptor in the "Data Encryption" article of the UniDAC help ( http://www.devart.com/unidac/docs/encryption.htm )

Thank you very much for reply. I will get back if I got questions.

But this information is helpful for now.

Regards.
