I started the discussion because of this presentation:
https://www.firebirdsql.org/file/community/conference-2016/encrypting-firebird-databases.pdf
with the following quote:
Known issue:
– Encrypted size == initial size
I don't understand why this is considered as an issue.
– Use of ECB mode in AES
– Visible repeating sequences on some pages
AES crypt plugin by IBPhoenix uses CBC and there is no "visible repeating sequences" on
pages.
