Description

enhancement

My host just about has nostream installed and running and this morning I started wondering if nostream is compliant with GDPR, California's privacy law, etc.

npubs are literally personally identifiable information. Events absolutely have personally identifiable information. The users table - well, that's about users so that's all personally identifiable information. The invoices table is tied to people so that also contains personally identifiable information. At the end of the day social media databases are the poster children for databases with personally identifiable information. Everything related to a person (nym or real name) has to be encrypted.

The problem is, unlike MySQL / MariaDB, PostgreSQL doesn't seem to do "encryption at rest".

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/encryption-options.html

If I understand it correctly the options are:

  • Encrypting the entire drive - but that's not really "encrypted at rest" since any application with proper permissions can read anything on the drive. It only helps if the drive gets physically stolen (which isn't really a problem in modern data centers).
  • Particular columns can be encrypted but then the clients accessing those columns have to futz with keys when it accesses the data.

From what I'm seeing there's no equivalent of MySQL/MariaDB's encryption of tables/tablespaces.

SO… Are there any plans to support MySQL/MariaDB? I don't see how I (or anyone for that matter) can use nostream until it supports a database that can encrypt data at rest.

Sorry for being a bummer. But I've survived this long doing what I do because I fuss over details like this. (And my users trust me with truly sensitive information because I fuss over details like this).
