I cannot answer your questions about SQLCipher, but the main authors of SQLite 
produce two encryption systems for SQLite:





SEE does live encryption and decryption.  CEROD is for cases where you want to 
distribute a large encrypted compressed read-only database.  Both of them are 
complete in their C source code: neither have any dependencies on anything 
external apart from SQLite itself.  The $2,000 fee is basically permission to 
use all versions of the product forever, with good sample code and support 
included.

[sqlite] SQLite Encryption in Windows 8 Metro App

[Jay, Jayavasanthan John]

Hi Guys,

I tried out SQLCipher and have successfully integrated in testing with
SQLite for encrypting and decrypting my database for a Windows 8 Metro App.

But as per Windows 8 Metro App compatibility guidelines, openssl (which is
the crypto package used by SQLCipher) fails on the usage of libraries such
as advapi32.lib, gdi32.lib and user32.lib.

So, question, can this be resolved by continuing to use SQLCipher without
openssl, but a different crypto package,

Or, is there any other package which doesn't have these dependencies for
encrypting and decrypting SQLite databases.

PS: The encryption/decryption is only done for the content database of the
app and not the user database.

Thanks in advance to the community for the help and guidance they may be
able to provide me for this,

Best Regards,
Jay
