Transparent Data Encryption

SQL Server 2008 enables encryption of an entire database, data files, and log files, without the need for application changes. Encryption lets you meet the demands of regulatory compliance and overall concern for data privacy. Some of the benefits of transparent data encryption include searching encrypted data using both range and fuzzy searches, searching secure data from unauthorized users, and data encryption. These can all be enabled without changing existing applications.
