Keeping Sensitive Data Secure with Always Encrypted

The Discussion

• 

  Thanks for the video Jakub!

  Great demo, good to know the high-level difference between encryption types - Deterministic v Randomised.

  Would be good to know which SQL Server versions this is available, Azure SQL too?

  What kind of security compliance regulations would drive this - PCI comes to mind, anything else?

  Is there a considerable performance hit? Just decrypting the data or it affects query performance too?

  If you want [for whatever reason] to get plain-text in SSMS - is there a way to do that?

  Thanks!

  Hi, Thanks a lot for your video and so so well explained it

  Hello Jakub I am so tentative to decide to use this awesome tool, however I have a question, I'm working on a project with SQL Server 2017 - 14 Express Edition. And I'm pretty sure they aren't going to buy the Enterprise Edition.
  
  Even so, Can I use this tool? Or is there any limitation related to the final version of SQL?
  
  Thanks a lot.

  What client side actions are needed to provide access to the encryption certificates?
  
  Can multiple master keys be applied to a single column? This is to provide custom access levels for different sets of columns. i.e. column_key_1 is in master_key_1, master_key_2; or column has column_key_1, column_key_2 applied to it, each in separate master keys?
