The encryption - decryption of the column level for a commercial DBMS with supporting user interface

The main purpose of the project was to develop an improvement of the database column level encryption implementation. The Small and medium size enterprises (SMEs) need to secure their valuable database from intrusion by unauthorized personnel economically. Nevertheless, they have identified a need f...
