PB 12.5 Destroy Sensitive Data in ResultSet after use

[Former Member]

Dear ALL,

Say a client program in Powerbuilder 12.5 fetched some sensitive data like personal or credit card data from the database and stored them in a ResultSet object.

Just wonder if there is any handy method to completely wipe out the ResultSet object in memory after use?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Hello Matthew,

I'm not sure if you can force PowerBuilder objects to be completely destroyed from the internal global memory pool (See SyBooks Online)

However, you can use other ways to secure your sensitive data by using encryption within your application: Topwiz Software - Crypto

Hope this helps
