Hardware acceleration in the CPU is still not nearly as fast as this task being
done by the drive controller. All software runs through the CPU. Yes, the CPU
can support specific types of code which helps. Just like GPUs, the advanced
support in the drive controllers makes a big diffe
Hi,
This is an interesting subject...
I would say it depends on what you want to protect from and how deep are your
pockets...
As people said, it is difficult to encrypt the whole 4D database without
encryption being supported at the database engine level...
At the moment 4D does not support i

I once did this with an Ingrian DataSecure hardware appliance, which is in fact
a specially protected 19" rack computer. From 4D I generate an xml containing
the data to be encrypted, this xml is then sent ov

Not sure why you say for personal use only. FileVault supports 256 AES and
benefits from hardware acceleration in the CPU. I’ve never done timing
comparisons but there are no noticeable performance effects at all. Some people
have tested, years ago, and found at most only 2-3% degradation.

FileVault 2, or just FileVault since Mountain Lion, is drive level encryption.

I don't believe that FileVault and Windows built in encryption is sufficient
enough. I need to comply with NIST Special Publication 800-57. I believe it
will have to be hardware based with some sort of special key management.
Honestly it's all pretty foreign to me.

FileVault 2 was a big improvement over Apple's first attempt.
This link describes the performance impact:

Jody,
Do you have a recommendation on a controller that does this well?
Thanks

That is a requirement of Health Care Systems in Canada for more than 15 years.
It is actually a good idea. Fortunately there is an ‘easy’ way to do it and it
does not take once ounce of programming (not good for billable hours). The

The easiest is to turn on the drive encryption. However I also selectively
encrypt more sensitive information so it is double encrypted.

I have had a request to have a system have all data at rest encrypted. My
understanding is that they actually want the 4D datafile and backups encrypted
at all times. Have others had to deal with this and if so what options did you
find available and what did you choose as your solution?
