Task Type	Feature Request	Severity	Low
Category	Library	Priority	Normal
Status	New	Reported Version	1.4.x
Assigned To	No-one	Due in Version	Undecided
Operating System	All	Percent Complete
Details	There's an API compatible version of Sqlite3 with "on-the-fly" encryption: http://www.zetetic.net/software/sqlcipher/ The /usr/lib/sqlite3.so may be replaced with this in order to use encrypted database support. Perhaps there is someone able to implement the sqlite3_key(), sqlite3_rekey(), ... functions to a new sqlcipher-backend. Hope someone will be able to get sqlcipher working correctly with OpenDBX as using 'PRAGMA key="xxx"' leads to some memory leaks, at least what I experienced here on my dev system using valgrind.
