What is the purpose of using SALT with Transparent Data Encryption (TDE)?
A.
To allow for the use of an index on the encrypted data
B.
To randomize the encryption of data in tablespaces
C.
To randomize the encryption of data in columns
D.
To reduce the storage required for the encrypted data.
Explanation:
In column section:
The Generate Key Randomly setting enables salt. Salt is a way to strengthen the security of
encrypted data.
It is a random string added to the data before it is encrypted, causing repetition of text in the clear
to appear different when encrypted. Salt removes one method attackers use to steal data, namely,
matching patterns of encrypted text.
