PostgreSQL : encryption with pgcrypto
Hi
Regarding the encryption of data by pgcrypto, I would like to know the recommendations for the management of the key.
Is it possible to store it off the PostgreSQL server?
Is there the equivalent of Oracle "wallet" ?
Thanks in advance
Best Regards

Late reply, but the last presentation on this page shows how to use
cryptographic hardware with Postgres:

You could modify that to use a key management system (KMS).
