If you or your customers are not encrypting data at the disk level, then your data is at risk. Aside from PCI DSS, HIPAA, Sarbanes Oxley and other regulatory compliance issues, leaving customer data unencrypted is just not good business. And frankly encryption at the application level is time consuming, difficult to manage and leaves room for human error. Simply unacceptable when it comes to your data’s security.

Key management is the provisions made in a cryptography system design that are related to generation, exchange, storage, safeguarding, use, vetting, and replacement of keys. It includes cryptographic protocol design, key servers, user procedures, and other relevant protocols.
Key management concerns keys at the user level, either between users or systems. This is in contrast to key scheduling; key scheduling typically refers to the internal handling of key material within the operation of a cipher.
Successful key management is critical to the security of a cryptosystem. In practice it is arguably the most difficult aspect of cryptography because it involves system policy, user training, organizational and departmental interactions, and coordination between all of these elements.
These concerns are not limited to cryptographic engineering. Key management requires both technical and organizational decisions, and as a result, some aspects of key management risk being neglected by managers and engineers, out of concern that the problem is technical or managerial, respectively.

TDE is a technology employed by both Microsoft and Oracle to encrypt database content. TDE offers encryption at a column, table, and table space level. TDE solves the problem of protecting data at rest, encrypting databases both on the hard drive and consequently on backup media.” The other great value of TDE is that you can enable data security without having to make any changes to your application or database.
