Access to server's file system and server's RAM are rather different things.

  Not quite so. If someone can write a library into plugins subdir - memory is accessible. Of course, no write access to FS makes things a little harder.



Yes. Luckily correctly installed firebird on linux has root-only write access to plugins subdir (can't say for sure about windows).


To be precise - always thought that disabling access to FS (at least sensitive parts) is much better solution than encrypting databases :-)
Encryption is not a replacement of correct server's OS tuning.
