Encryption ?

Open P31N opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Greetings, I saw you can store in either memory or local, however is there a way to encrypt the database?

Hey there, the short answer is: no, not in the moment :smile:

When thinking about "encrypt the database" the first thing which comes to my mind is what does it actually mean? The design of the database has multiple layers of abstraction. Each of the lower layers could potentially be used for encryption. In my mind encryption should happen on the lowest layers i.e. just before storing bytes on disk or in memory.

Hey @krotik look into ChaCha or SALSA20 I can help with encryption and even compression if you want.
