Threat model

This is designed to protect you from leaking sensitive user data under very specific scenarios:

  • Full data dump
    • Misplaced unencrypted backups
    • Compromised database host
  • Partial data dump
    • Query injection via unsanitized input

Specifically, this does not provide any protection in cases of a compromised app host, app-level vulnerabilities, or accidentally leaking sensitive data into logs. It is also not a substitute for actually encrypting your backups, sanitizing your input, et cetera.

Interface: Encryption input

Add a new field with "Encryption Input"
