Pages are encrypted before being written to +disk and are decrypted when read back. Due to the small footprint and great +performance it's ideal for protecting embedded application databases and is +well suited for mobile development. + +SQLCipher was initially developed by Stephen Lombardo at Zetetic LLC +(sjlombardo@zetetic.net) as the encrypted database layer for Strip, an iPhone +data vault and password manager (http://getstrip.com). |
