SQL Server Forum / General / Security / July 2005Need Advice - encrypt data in transit
I need some advice. We need to encrypt data in transit between a fat client and SQL Server, using either AES or 3DES encryption. We will have about 500 clients and probably clustered servers. Can anyone give me advice on the best way to do this? Thanks !

I'm not clear on what encryption algorithm SSL uses. Does it use AES or 3DES, or is it configurable so the algorithm can be specified? -Rog > Net-Library Encryption > http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/architec/8_ar_c s_6fu6.asp [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > probably clustered servers.

You either need to use the Windows Certificate Authority or a 3rd party CA like Verisign. Most Certificate Authorities use RSA.
