Can cryptoAPI be used outside of databases?

[karmacomposer]

I see that the DACs like UniDAC have crpytoAPI for encrypt/decrypt functions. Can this be used on general data (strings, images, files, etc) or is it specifically for use inside of databases?

If it is not capable to encrypt/decrypt data outside of a database, is the cryptoAPI available as a product we can purchase to encrypt/decrypt data, files, images, etc.

We already bought SecureBridge and are looking at UniDAC for database development.

Thank you.

Hi Mike!

Please be informed that UniDAC does not provide encryption/decryption outside of the database.

For encryption/decryption purposes outside of the database you may use SecureBridge product:
https://www.devart.com/sbridge/

The free trial version is here: https://www.devart.com/sbridge/download.html

For now, SecureBridge can provide encryption/decryption in CMS format:

In a very soon perspective SecureBridge will have the interface for files and streams encryption/decryption. So, it can entirely solve your encryption/decryption needs.

Should you have any other questions, feel free to ask!
