Hi Harsh,

The same question has been asked by Sushant Jain.

I am not sure if the encryption feature is at data field level, but the following ALTER SYTEM command may help you encrypt the data at system level.

Hi Ravindra,

From what I've understood,the ALTER SYSTEM command is used to encrypt the persistence layer and not the in-memory database.

Hi Harsh,

That is correct. You can refer to further discussion on this topic in the thread  http://scn.sap.com/message/14100017#14100017.

It is quite a coincidence that both of you asked the same question at the same time.

Regards,

Ravi
