What do you suggest?
I don't know what kind of application you implement and how sensitive data actually are, but FYI, there are countries having strict enacts of point-to-point encryption e.g. in banking e.g. between SIM in your mobile phone as a client and AS400 as a banking host. No decryption/reencryption in the middle. AFAIK, *reliable* solution is *always* built on specialized HW, e.g. http://www.thales-esecurity.com/solutions/Database_protection.shtml HTH, Peter --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
