SQL 2005: Symmetric Encryption With Asp.net Page, Login, Username, Password

Nov 29, 2007

I currently have a login page in asp.net 2.0 linked to a SQL 2005 database table that holds the usernames and passwords. At present, I am on an "honor system" where I do have access to the passwords of the other users but would like to change it so that I cannot know what the users' passwords are. Thank goodness that there is no personal information within the pages and the logins were created to keep a log of who logs in and what not. However, I would like to soon hold more personlized information, hence the need to encrypt each user's password even from myself.

I have read up on Symmetric Encryption for SQL 2005 but I would like to know if there is anything else available, any good proven methods that someone else has already tried.

Also, while testing out Symmetric Encryption, I noticed that I have to supply the encryption password for the decryption. However, if I know what the password for the encryption/decription is, does it not defeat the purpose of having the encryption at all, in terms of the "Admin" having access to sensitive information? Just curious if I understood the concept correctly or not.

 Thanks in advance to all.

2005 Encryption - Symmetric Keys

May 29, 2006



Hi There

We have been playing around with encryption in 2005. I cannot find a BOL topic that discusses dropping encryption objects such as keys.

We do the followign steps:

Create master key with password, then we create a certificate using the master key, we then create a symmetric key using this certificate and encrypt data columns.

But what i find worrying is that you can then drop the symmetric key , there are no warnings that you have objects dependant on this key for decryption.

Once you have dropped the key you cannot decrypt the data anymore?

Also the key defults the expiration date to 1 year.

WHat happens after 1 year when you have encrypted data and an expired key, or someone drops the key ? How can you ever decrypt the data after that ?

You can backup master keys nd certificates but not symmetric keys?

It seems to be that youc an very easily orphan encrypted data by the loss of the symmetric key for whatever reason, is this correct ?

Thanx

SQL 2005 Encryption - Symmetric Keys

Feb 14, 2007

I have a question about the storage of symmetric keys in SQL Server 2005 due to the fact that I have read two conflicting statements on this.

In Laurentiu's blog located at http://blogs.msdn.com/lcris/archive/2005/10/14/481434.aspx, in regards to preventing symmetric key loss he makes the statement that "...Because the keys are stored in the database, they will be saved with the database....".

But in the white paper Improving Data Security by Using SQL Server 2005, which is located at http://www.microsoft.com/technet/itshowcase/content/sqldatsec.mspx, in regards to symmetric keys the statement is made "...Note: The symmetric key is not stored in the database. Only the encrypted values of the symmetric key are stored in the database. Therefore, users who can access the database cannot decrypt the data without first decrypting the symmetric key....".

So I am just wondering which statement is correct, are symmetric keys stored in the database or not?

Thanks!

Ginny

Export Username / Password To CSV File To Test SP To Output Username / Password

Jun 2, 2014

I put this together to export the user name /password to a csv file to test my SP to output the user name/password.

DECLARE @user_name varchar(50)
DECLARE @psswrd varchar(10)
SELECT @user_name ,@psswrd
FROM ngweb_bulk_enrollments
EXEC master.dbo.xp_cmdshell 'bcp NGDevl.dbo.ngweb_bulk_enrollments out C: est.csv -Sserver1 -T -t, -r
-c'

This works but I don't get the headers in the file. How can I include the headers?

Username Password Conversions On Upgrade To 2005

May 23, 2008

Am getting ready to perform upgrade/migrate from 2000 to 2005 and have concerns about all the usernames/passwords converting accurately, as the existing 2000 instance has hundreds of them (am used to conversions with few usernames/passwords). Any suggestions as to the best way to proceed. The upgrade/migration is being done on the same box. Will a straight upgrade convert the master db cleanly with u/p, what issues does a migration on the same box present? Thanks.

SQL Server Symmetric Encryption

May 6, 2008

 Hi - this is a repost of a question that I originally posted in Security. Ok, I'm very new to this topic.  I'm working on an application that
requires that some information in the db be encrypted and then
decrypted when retrieved.  I have everything set up and it works fine
except for one thing.  I can't seem to be able to pass a parameter into
the sp that is used to decrypt the key.  It only seems to take the
string when typed in.  I really think I'm missing something here.  It
doesn't seem all that great to have your password hard-coded into the
stored procedure.  Maybe I'm just screwing something up?  Anyway, I
can't get it to work if it looks like this:OPEN SYMMETRIC KEY Key_NameDECRYPTION BY PASSWORD =  @pwdThis does work:OPEN SYMMETRIC KEY Key_NameDECRYPTION BY PASSWORD =  'password'This
has to be some goof on my part right?  If the db machine is compromised
you're giving the keys to decrypt the data away as well - they just
haver to open your stored proc.  You should keep them separate imo and
I hope someone can set me straight.  Also, encrypting the stored
procedure is  an option, but it's very easy to decrypt from what I've
read.  Can someone help point me in the right direction?  Thanks!  And thanks to the mod that suggested moving this post.  Any help will be appreciated.

SQL 2012 :: Using Symmetric Key Encryption

Nov 2, 2015

I am working to set up encryption of my database. am trying to implement a process proposed by the DoD Standard Technical Implementation Guide (STIG) and cannot figure it out. I am using SQL 2012 and the requirement is to

A: Run the following to create a certificate:
USE <'database name'>
CREATE CERTIFICATE <'certificate name'>
ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = '<'password'>'
FROM FILE = <'path/file_name'>
WITH SUBJECT = 'name of person creating key',
EXPIRY_DATE = '<'expiration date: yyyymmdd'>'

This script did not work – I did not know what file it was referencing and it kept erroring out, so I used my own process as follows

USE master
GO
CREATE MASTER KEY ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'mY_P@$$w0rd'
CREATE CERTIFICATE certificate_name
WITH SUBJECT = 'Certificate for my database'

[code]....

This also error out, but my questions are the following:

-What would the symmetric key be encrypting?
-The application that is using the database is IIS, so would there be a problem with it communicating with the database?
-Does the key need to be installed on that IIS server?
-Do I need to apply the encryption to the database, column or table.

Symmetric Encryption By Asymmetric Keys

Nov 9, 2007

i've getting ready to implement encryption on a rather large database. I'd read that if performance is of utmost concert, you should use symmetric keys. I want to encrypt those keys by asymmetric keys. My code is working, but i'm just not sure if there is a quicker way? do you have to open and close the key each time you select/update/insert in a stored procedure that references an encrypted column, or is there a way to just modify the code by adding the encryptbykey/decryptbykey functions?

has anyone implemented encryption on columns in large tables? any suggestions for me?

Thanks,
Pete

here's my code to create the keys:

create asymmetric key ASK_Auto_Encrypt
with algorithm = RSA_512;

create symmetric key SK_AE
with algorithm = TRIPLE_DES
encryption by asymmetric key ASK_Auto_Encrypt;

here's my code to test this:

create table encryption_test (test varchar(50));

open symmetric key SK_AE
decryption by asymmetric key ASK_Auto_Encrypt;

insert into encryption_test
select encryptbykey(key_guid('SK_AE'),'test');

select convert(varchar(max),decryptbykey(test)) from encryption_test;

close symmetric key SK_AE;

Issue Working With Symmetric Key For Encryption

Jun 21, 2007

Please be gentle...I am very new to working with SQL.



I have the need to encrypt my columns in SQL 2005. I have created a symmetric key 'SecureKey' as well as a secure certificate 'SecureCert'

I have ran the script to create the key and the certificate successfully. When I run "select * sys.symmetic_keys;" the key shows up...when I run "select * sys.certificates;" the cert shows up.



Here is my issue, in the security folder under my database, these two things do not show up in the appropriate folders. Also when I run my encryption scripts, I am getting an error of

"msg 15151, Level 16, State 1, Line 3

cannot find the symmetric key 'SecureKey', because it does not exist or you do not have permission"



Am I missing something?



Thanks

Using Symmetric Key Problem With Encryption, Decryption Works Fine

May 4, 2006

Hey I had a table with a column of data encrypted in a format. I was able to decrypt it and then encrypt it using Symmetric keys and then updating the table column with the data. Now, there is a user sp which needs to encrypt the password for the new user and put it in the table. I'm not being able to make it work. I have this so far. Something somewhere is wrong. I dont know where. Please help Thanks. I used the same script to do the encryption initially but that was for the whole column. I need to see the encrypted version of the @inTargetPassword  variable. But it's not working. It doesn't give me an error but gives me wrong data...

 

 

declare @thePassword as varbinary(128)

,@inTargetPassword as varchar(255)

,@pwd3 as varchar(255)

,@theUserId bigint

set @theUserId= 124564

set @inTargetPassword = 'test'

OPEN SYMMETRIC KEY Key1

DECRYPTION BY CERTIFICATE sqlSecurity;

Select @pwd3=EncryptByKey(Key_GUID('Key1')

, @inTargetPassword, 1, HashBytes('SHA1', CONVERT( varbinary, [UserObjectId])))

from table1 where UserObjectId= @theUserId

close symmetric key Key1

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Using Column Encryption With Symmetric Keys

Jun 25, 2015

I am trying to implement the column encryption on one of the tables, have used the below link as the reference and got stuck at the last step.

[URL] ....

I have completed the following steps so far.

- CREATE MASTER KEY ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = ‘myStrongPassword’

- CREATE CERTIFICATE MyCertificateName
WITH SUBJECT = 'A label for this certificate'

- CREATE SYMMETRIC KEY MySymmetricKeyName WITH
IDENTITY_VALUE = 'a fairly secure name',
ALGORITHM = AES_256,

[Code] .....

Example by using the function

EXEC OpenKeys

-- Encrypting
SELECT Encrypt(myColumn) FROM myTable

-- Decrypting
SELECT Decrypt(myColumn) FROM myTable

When I ran the last command :

-- Decrypting
SELECT Decrypt(myColumn) FROM myTable

I get the following error :

Msg 257, Level 16, State 3, Line 2
Implicit conversion from data type nvarchar to varbinary is not allowed. Use the CONVERT function to run this query.

Where will I use the convert function, in decrypt function or in select statement?

SQL SERVER 2005 + ASP.NET 2.0: Problems With Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection --&> Login Failed For User 'username'

Apr 23, 2007

I have lots of problems with the connection. I've connected many dropdownlists to the database and i didn't have problems at all. I also try an example of an ASP.NET book:
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server"
ConnectionString= "<%$ ConnectionStrings:CIPPEC%>"
InsertCommand=
"INSERT INTO
[member] ([first_name], [last_name], [malefemale], [yearborn])
VALUES
(@first_name, @last_name, @malefemale, @yearborn)">
<InsertParameters>
<asp:FormParameter Name="first_name" Type="String"
FormField="FirstTextBox" />
<asp:FormParameter Name="last_name" Type="String"
FormField="LastTextbox"/>
<asp:FormParameter Name="malefemale" Type="Int32"
FormField="MFRadioButton" />
<asp:FormParameter Name="yearborn" Type="Int32"
FormField="YearDropDown" />
</InsertParameters>
</asp:SqlDataSource>
And it worked well.  But when i try to connect my page with:
Dim connect As New Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection( _
"Server=glgrand-arSQLEXPRESS;UID="WindowsStartupUser";password="WindowsStartupPass"; database=CIPPEC")
connect.Open()
Dim cmd As New Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand( _
"INSERT PRUEBA (PersonaJuridica, NombreRazonSocial, Nombre, Segundo_nombre, Apellido) " & _
"VALUES (txtPerJur, txtRazSoc, txtName, txtSecondName, txtApellido)", _
connect)
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
connect.Close()
The error message says: Login failed for user 'username'.
I tried lots of things but it didn't work:
In SQL Configuration Manager:
Client Protocols: TCP/IP and Named Pipes are enabled.
In SQL 2005 Services: Server Properties: Built-in Account: Local System
SQL Server Surface Area Configuration: Remote connections: Using both TCP/IP and Name Pipes connection is selected.
In SQL Management Studio i created a new login glgrand-ar/UserStartupName , with sysadmin server role and user mapping my CIPPEC database.
I don't know what else i could try, i tried it at home and at work and i couldn't connect to my database and make an INSERT. It stops at Connect.Open() with the error that i wrote in this subject message.
It's evident that i'm doing something wrong (because i'm new): Could you please help me with a solution and explain me what are the data that i have to put on the Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection ?? I'm using the Windows authentication: i'm putting my username and password and it doesn't worked.
Thank you!!

Connection Strings, Trusted-connection VS Username-password, SQL Server 2005 Express

Mar 9, 2007

All --
Please help.
I have some questions about connection strings.
 
BACKGROUND...

Note that I am using the "SQL Native Client OLE DB Provider", SQL Sever 2005 Express, ASP.NET, C#.NET, and VS.NET 2005.
Note that I do not want to use the "Attach a database file" type of connection string.
Note that I am using the site http://www.ConnectionStrings.com as a reference.
Note that this "Standard security" connection string...<add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="Server=MYTESTOFFICESERVERS;Database=MyDatabase;Uid=MyDatabaseUser;Pwd=MyDatabasePassword;" />...does not work and causes the following run-time error...A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (provider: Shared Memory Provider, error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.)
Note that this "Trusted connection" connection string...<add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="Server=MYTESTOFFICESERVERS;Database=MyDatabase;Trusted_Connection=yes;" />...works but is less-than ideal because it uses a Trusted Connection rather than a Username/Password combination.
 
QUESTIONS...
(A) What exactly does the error in Item 4 mean?
(B) Do 4 and 5 imply that one must use a Trusted_Connection for all SQL Server 2005 Express connection strings when the database does not reside in the web application's App_Data folder or use a "Attach a database file" type of connection string?
(C) Are there any alternatives?
(D) What do you suggest?
 
Please advise.
Thank you.

My VisualStudio .Net automatically connects when I work on the site.

Does anyone know what the default username and password may be or what my options are to get this sqldump to work?

I tried all the passwords including admin user/pwd but the dialog remains there. I close IE and start again I can access the reports. For your information, the checkbox 'Save my password' is checked in the reports. Does anyone know why the username/password dialog appears the first time?



2. Sometimes some of us get a 'Page cannot be displayed' while the others can access it. I have to start Reporting services and everyone can access the reports. Any ideas?

Using 'Alter Login' To Change Password In SQL Server 2005

Sep 26, 2006

Please Help!!

We have an application using SQLOLEDB connection to a SQL Server 2005 database. Per domain policy, the users are required to change their password every 60 days.

The accounts are established to 'Enforce password policy'.

When we try to execute the 'ALTER LOGIN' command to change the password, locks are being established and will not free the account without bouncing the instance.

After issuing the command, any interaction with the server using this UserID results in a "lock request time out" error 1222.

I have tried issuing this command using both the application and through SQLServer Mgmt Studio Express and the results are the same.

Any idea would be greatly appreciated.

JDBC Username And Password Problem

May 10, 2008

Hello. I have recently installed MS SQL SERVER 2005 and when I was installing it, it asked me for the username and password, and there I had 2 options: either write my own, either select "Use Windows Authentification". I selected the "Windows Authenthification" ( I guess that means that it uses my username and password from Windows ).

Now, Im trying to connect to the Server using Java and JDBC, but I have a problem: I have to specify the username and the password of the connection! My windows' only account is "Vlad" and I have no password. I tried these options, but it didn't work. I also tried with empty string "", and with "sa", "sa" but it didn't work either. I get an error saying that "Login failed for user 'Vlad'. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server Connection."

Any ideea of what the username/passwords are or how to get them?.

Thank you for your time.

URL Access To SSRS Is Asking For The Username And Password.

Feb 26, 2008

Hi All

I am trying to connect to my report server through URL access and then trying to retrieve some values from my SSRS from my local machine like :

<a href="http://IPAddressOfServer/ReportServer/Reports/?%2fDashboardReports%2fHorse_Profile&rs:Command=Render&HorseID=117415"><%=name%> </a>


But when i click on this hyperlink it asks for the username and password for that server.
However , i am using the following code to connect to my server :


String url = "http://IpAddressOfServer/ReportServer/ReportService2005.asmx";

ReportingService2005Soap port = null;
ReportingService2005Locator loc = new ReportingService2005Locator();
// Retrieve a port from the service locator
try {
port = loc.getReportingService2005Soap(new java.net.URL(url));
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (ServiceException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}

org.apache.axis.client.Stub stub = (org.apache.axis.client.Stub) port;
stub.setUsername("IpAddressOfServer\USERNAME");
stub.setPassword("PASSWORD");

It is getting connected withut any problem and i am retrieving values also from my SSRS.

But the problem comes when i want to click on some hyperlink and it should go to the report server and generate the corressponding report.
But it is asking for the username and password which is not required.
If there will be some security issue it must not be get connected with the server through the code i am using.
I have tried to connect with wrong password but it gives unauthorized exception.

SO please anybody has any idea, advise me.

Regards.
