If all the info inside is encrypted then does SELECT work correctly to search for data ?


It works OK for "select columnx, columny... from table_name where columnz ="nnn"

provided that columnz is unencrypted. Given that you have designed the database yourself you can make the "nnn" data in columnz fairly innocent data and you know from the design what is in the other fields. It makes for some awkward array management in memory and you must remember to dispose of these structures when you are done with them (regardless of any garbage collection!) but it works OK.

And a lot of SQL would not be useful.
I'd suspect that a where clause that uses "like" is not useful any more
