How about using CFusion_Encrypt() to encrypt your information?  I think
it's a bit "stronger".


Also, can't you Hash() the string and then compare it to another hashed
value when needed?

I need to encrypt SSNs.

I'm looking for something more powerful than encrypt().

Also, does the length of my encryption key affect the
difficulty for people trying to decrypt?

For example, is using "canine" for a key more secure than
using "dog" just because it's longer?

Thanks,
