########################################################################################## LOC-12: Encrypt the in-memory database ########################################################################################## Issue Type: Improvement ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Issue Information ==================== Priority: Major Status: Open Resolution: Unresolved Project: LocalChat (LOC) Reported By: btasker Assigned To: btasker Components: - Server Targeted for fix in version: - V0.0.3 Time Estimate: 0 minutes Time Logged: 0 minutes ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Issue Description ================== This may not actually be beneficial or feasible, so initially just an exercise in exploration. Could we use sqlcipher to encrypt the in-memory SQLite database? There may be some blockers for doing this though - Cleartext will come in and out of memory whenever a query is run, so is it worth the overhead? - The python bindings don't appear to be in the Debian repos, so it'd mean an extra setup step of manually installing them Still, worth looking into rather than ruling out, out of hand. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Activity ========== ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2018-05-25 10:00:46 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- btasker added 'V0.0.3' to Fix Version ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2018-05-25 10:00:46 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- btasker removed 'V0.0.2' from Fix Version
