I would like to:
1) Encrypt/Encode a SQLite DB file from the command line (or via an
application) and
2) De-Encrypt/Decode the same SQLite DB from within Cocoa/iPhone via
a key of some sort.
Scenario:
I'm developing a game using data values stored within a SQLite DB
file. I don't want hackers
to pry into the DB file and cheat the game; yet I need to
occasionally update the SQLite DB file via
importing MS Excel data.
I'm thinking of encypting the DB file that is stored with the
Application Bundle, then programmatically
de-code it within a working directory to glean the contents; then
remove the de-coded SQLite DB file.
So the game data is stored as an encrypted SQLite DB file within
the bundle, to be de-encrypted upon
game startup to load the environment variables.
Any (simple) ideas?
What about storing it on an encrypted disk image?
