What do most businesses use for encrypting important data?

You can use IPSec if over a network (be sure to disable weak encryption methods when configuring though).  Good backup software has encryption mechanisms.  \n\nCheck out some other links:\n\nhttp://www.ntfs.com/\nhttp://www.dekart.com/products/encryption/private_disk/\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/security/learnmore/encryptdata.mspx\nhttp://computer.howstuffworks.com/encryption.htm\n\nGood luck!

Sorry, your only option is encryption at this point. However, if you go through the copyright process with the government you can claim damages for any who tamper with your data. It is difficult but doable. In the meanwhile, even with a copyright you will need to encrypt in order to keep others from tampering. Now, you can use a read only disk. Then they can read what is on it but they can not write from it to another CD. Just go in and click on Properties, then check the "read only" box. That way they can read but not write.

forget all that. If you don't want people downloading it in the first place, encrpt it, and tell people it's encrpyted, and noone will touch it. There wouldn't be any point because even if they download it and save it and print it and try to decrypt it, noone can read it except the version seen on the web (because the sever used to publish the page on the web will have the decryption code (if you give it to them and tell them not to give it to anyone else - under federal law it's illegal to give out encryption codes). Now all you need is a good encryption program, which your likely going to have to pay for, but it will GUARANTEE the safety of the data on your personal PC and anything else you want to keep personal while flying around on the web. Good luck.\n\nAsk the community here what they think a good quality encryption program is. I'd suggest nothing less than a 128 bit cypher (256 if your paranoid - 512 is what the US federal government DOD, and the largest banks in the world, use - 1024 bit is what bill gates uses for his personal finances)

DMV records of licensed operators and vehicles\nMedical records at your local hospital\nAll of your insurance policies\nAll of your credit cards\nAll of your banking records\nAll of your tax records\nAll of your utility accounts\nYour phone bill and phone records\nAll of your school records\n\nThis is just the tip of the iceberg.  If you can't figure out the importance of databases (and the need for security) then there's nothing that I can do to help you.

Depends on what your currently doing right now. Of course authentication and authorization are huge topics in the security feild.  But for starters, don't store any plain text data.  Use strong encryption (3DES, Blowfish, AES,MD5, etc...) on any personally stored information.  \n\nTake a trip over to the open source web application securty project and have a look at the top ten list of common web application vulnerabilities. This should be a good starting point for you.

I believe you need 128 bit encrypition for HIPAA but I never played with that program.  I have used PGP which is a great encryption program.  It has been around for years and is one of the first out there.  Its easy to use and does not really have any proplems.  You can download it at http://www.pgp.com  This is the program I would recomend and most of the fortune 500 security would recommend.

There are cards out there that offer password protection. I looked into this once, and found them "so so". If your goal is to discourage the casual data thief, then this will do. If you're looking for industrial strength encryption, then these tools won't offer it.\nUse file encryption instead, and transfer the encrypted files onto the SD card.

Your supposition was correct. All information transferred is encrypted. The performance is not as bad as you might think because public key cryptography is only used to securely transfer a symmetric key which allows the data to be transmitted securely and without a lot of overhead.

dont know but it will be encrypted .

Typically, e-mail is only encrypted if it contains information you wouldn't want to disclose to anyone who might be able to see it as it's being transported to the recipient. E-mail, in general, is all plain text and can be read by system administrators operating the e-mail servers or anyone who is able to "sniff" the network either you or the servers are located on. \n\nA popular way of encrypting e-mail messages is to use a public key cryptography application such as PGP (Pretty Good Privacy). Despite the name, it's actually very good encryption. A public key cryptographic system allows you to have two "keys", which are really just files containing a string of characters. Your public key is stored on a key server and your private key is kept on your local PC and should NEVER be given to anyone. The recipient will need PGP as well to encrypt/decrypt any messages. When you send them a message you wish to be private, you encrypt that message with the recipient's public key. Since they are the only one who should have their private key, they are the only one who will be able to decrypt and read the message. If someone wants to send you a private message, they would encrypt the message with your public key and you would decrypt it once it is received, with your private key.\n\nOther Info:\nPGP Free Edition:http://www.pgpi.org/products/pgp/versions/freeware/\nPGP FAQs:\nhttp://www.pgpi.org/doc/faq/

You can use Winzip or Winrar\nBoth are zip tools than enable file and folder encryption.\nhttp://www.winzip.com/\nhttp://www.rarlab.com/

don't understand your question... wht software ur using to encrypt files ... winzip, winrar or any other...give additional details!

The biggest differences are going to be the size of you database and your security.  Businesses are going to need dedicated storage area and firewalls and/or proxy servers.  Home networks can do most of this through software instead of hardware.
