Hi!

Wouldn't it be a great feature to implement something like user AES encrypted content tables? I thought about using a database function like described here:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/encryption-functions.html

to encrypt alle personal Data of Users and usergroups (like personal messages Forum Content etc.) - especially Personal Message encrypting would be easy to implement.

One could easily use the password hash of the user as an password for the AES function. It would enable true privacy an even administrator couldn't easily read the private data of users.

And - maybe an even bigger advantage - people accessing the Database not authorized (like by SQL Injections etc.) wouldn't have the chance to read out password hashes or personal data.

What do you think about that? I think that would be a hot feature and IMHO fudForum would be the first to have it.

bye
