Field-Level Encryption for Sensitive Data

Encrypt sensitive data at the edge before it leaves your network boundary.

The Problem

TLS protects data in transit but leaves it vulnerable at rest:

  • Credit card numbers exposed to cloud operators
  • SSNs visible in logs and backups
  • Email addresses accessible to compromised services
  • PII compliance violations

The Solution

Learn 6 field encryption techniques:

  1. Credit Card Encryption - AES-256-GCM with partial preservation for PCI-DSS compliance
  2. PII Data Encryption - Multi-field encryption for SSN, email, phone with selective preservation
  3. Address Data Encryption - Street-level encryption while preserving geographic trends
  4. Key Management - Secure key storage, rotation, and versioning for production operations
  5. Selective Decryption - Key segregation and service authorization for granular access
  6. Compliance Monitoring - Encryption metadata and audit logging for regulatory requirements
