[rt-users] encrypting fields and email

I was thinking more along the lines of public and private key technology. If
I was to use the private key to encrypt all the data in one or more fields,
a key that I as developer generate, then having access to the database or
the server will not do you any good unless you have the corresponding
private key to decrypt. I could distribute the private key to authorized
individuals only. So now you would not only have to be authorized to access
RT, and the appropriate queue, but would also need the public key available
to your browser for decryption.

Something along the lines of what Lotus Notes is able to do. Not sure if
their Domino technology can do it as well.
