mysql - Protecting data on rented servers -


how can protect data stored in database on rented server(dedicated, shared, cloud). works host company can clone disk computer , steal data.

if encrypt database lose performance. 1 other option i'm considering run mysql database out of ram , encrypt database backups.

is there other ways protect data on rented server?

even if encrypt database hose can still access it. you'll need store key somewhere within site/app have access data. host can potentially use key access data.

i'm not seeing how running database in memory helps @ this. still need access data , host db dump database whether it's running drive or memory.

one option might use own hardware in co-location type setup 1 has physical access box. there lot of disadvantages method if serious wanting lock down data, think pretty solution.

that said, data valuable enough warrant 1 of major hosting providers snooping through stuff?
