Default Need Help ! Linux and Oracle (Encryption)

Dear Friends,

I have RedHat AS 2.1 Server with Oracle as Database. I am looking for some tool which can provide me strong encryption.

I want my data to be encrypted before it gets backed up on tape. These tapes are accessible to third party vendors hence I want soem strong encryprion tool.

Your help is highly appreciated

Thanks
Santosh

Not a big deal!

You can use openssl command
Code:
tar zcvf -  mydata|openssl des3 -salt  -k YOUR-PASSWORD | dd of=/dev/st0
Restore data:
Code:
dd if=/dev/st0|openssl des3 -d -k YOUR-PASSWORD|tar xzf -
Other methods may exists! But this is simple and easy to use if you forget YOUR-PASSWORD it is not possible to get back data!

You can also use gpg command to create password protected and encrypted file and then simply write file using tar command!
