Description
Welcome to Encryption in SQL Server 2019.
In this course you'll learn about the sundry approaches Microsoft uses to encrypt data. Microsoft SQL Server supports 5 different kinds of encryption for protecting data. While you'll learn about all of them the course will focus on the most recent and most often used approaches to encrypting your data.
In this course you implement two types of data encryption in SQL Server 2019 and one type that's not encryption but is a solid option for securing data.
They are:
Column Level Encryption
Transparent Level Encryption
Dynamic Data Masking
Encryption is the process of obfuscating data by the use of a key or password. This can make the data useless without the corresponding decryption key or password. Encryption does not solve access control problems. However, it enhances security by limiting data loss even if access controls are bypassed. You can use encryption in SQL Server for connections, data, and stored procedures.
Data protection is critical for ensuring that your organization is compliant with regulatory compliance standards like the GDPR and for meeting the expectations of your clients and business partners. Not only can data breaches result in large fines, but the reputational damage can be just as great.
One you've completed this course, you'll have a solid understanding of data encryption techniques in SQL Server.
Thanks for your interest in Encryption in SQL Server 2019.

Over the last five years I've transitioned to the exciting world of applied machine learning. I'm excited to show you what I've learned and help you move into one of the single most important fields in this space.
Experience, education and passion
I learn something almost every day. I work with insanely smart people. I'm a voracious learner of all things SQL Server and I'm passionate about sharing what I've learned. My area of concentration is performance tuning. SQL Server is like an exotic sports car, it will run just fine in anyone's hands but put it in the hands of skilled tuner and it will perform like a race car.
Certifications
Certifications are like college degrees, they are a great starting points to begin learning. I'm a Microsoft Certified Database Administrator (MCDBA), Microsoft Certified System Engineer (MCSE) and Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT).
Personal
Born in Ohio, raised and educated in Pennsylvania, I currently reside in Atlanta with my wife and two children.
