Hello,

I am seeking assistance enabling encryption for my MariaDB server with existing databases. Here are the specifics of my setup:

1. MariaDB Version: 10.3.39
2. Operating System: CentOS 7
3. Control Panel: cPanel

I have two main concerns:

1. Encryption at Rest: How can I enable encryption for data at rest on MariaDB? Are there any specific configurations or steps required to encrypt the existing databases and data files?

2. Encryption in Transit: What are the best practices to enable encryption for data in transit between the MariaDB server and clients? How can I ensure that all connections are securely encrypted?

I would appreciate detailed instructions or guidance on achieving this, especially considering the existing data and configurations. Additionally, if there are any potential issues or considerations to keep in mind, I would be grateful for any advice.

Note: This is for soc2 certificate

Thank you

  Hey there!  cPanel doesn't have any native tools for this, but do the details here help?
