Hi Vlad

Your remark is very interesting. You want to say that it's better to run SQL 
queries on unpersonalized data, and then retrieve the encrypted data for those 
records.
OK, I take this recommendation into account and I will forward it to my 
company's projects.

Nevertheless, you say that it is possible, in spite of everything, to use 
indexes on the encrypted data by using deterministic algorithms.
Can you tell me some examples of these algorithms?

Thanks in advance

Best Regards

Objet : Re: Why the index is not used ?

Additionally it is not clear why you want to search in table on encrypted data. 
Usually you match user with it's unpersonalized data (such as login, user ID) 
and then decrypt personalized data. If you need to store user identifying data 
encrypted as well (e.g. bank account number) you can use a deterministic 
algorithm for it (without salt) because it is guaranteed to be unique and you 
don't need to have different encrypted data for two same input strings.
