Good resources for that: http://groups.google.com/group/gears-users/browse_thread/thread/24b953308afb6e2a/b9685f2b835c670c
and http://groups.google.com/group/gears-users/browse_thread/thread/89a964fc04356fdb/a72b1c2acc3de1e8?hl=en&q=#a72b1c2acc3de1e8 I already answered on those topics, and I will just put the summary here: If we are concerned about the security of the data stored in local gears DB, means that there is already an "intruder" that have full access to the local machine and in this case it is impossible to develop a 100% safe security. Only thing that can be done is to keep the crypted data in local DB that you will decrypt on demand. This will protect the data if only the db file is stolen, but will be no help if there is full computer access (the "intruder" will have access to the locally stored decrypt algorithm). General idea: do not store sensitive data on offline mode!
