This article will concentrate on moving the database to another SQL Server instance rather than setting up encryption.Īs DBAs, there are many situations where we need to restore databases from one server to another. You may find detailed information about how to set up encryption in SQL Server and insert encrypted data in a table in the previous article.įor this demonstration, I am assuming that we already have some encrypted data in the database and we need to move it to another. In my last article, I wrote about how can we encrypt specific columns in a SQL Server database table using Database encryption. In this article, I am writing about how can we move a database with encrypted content to another SQL Server instance. Problem: How to restore a SQL Server database with Database encryption feature from one SQL server instance to another. There are various technologies available for database level encryption, one such feature is Transparent Data Encryption.
Thus, for a database framework, we lean toward a Database Encryption. Also, the encryption keys can be put away in a restricted table or file, encrypted by the master key, guaranteeing significantly more grounded security.
By setting up this feature, selective encryption is conceivable and it should be possible at different granularities like sections, tables and so forth. Database encryption guarantees information security while embeddings or recovering information from the database. This process makes sure even if the hackers get through the firewall and bypass the security, they would require encryption keys to decrypt the information. Database encryption is the process of changing the information inside database into some ciphertext using encryption keys and appropriate algorithm.
