Encrypting data in DB2

You can use InfoSphere® Guardium Data Encryption to encrypt your DB2® data.

Procedure

To encrypt your DB2 data, create an encryption exit routine, which is a DB2 edit procedure. You then specify that encryption exit routine as part of a table unload and reload operation.
InfoSphere Guardium Data Encryption can implement encryption in one of two ways:
  • Without compression if you create only an encryption exit routine
  • With compression if you link the encryption exit routine that you create to an existing compression edit procedure
