> We are going to start using cassandra for a billing system, and while I can 
> encrypt sstables at rest (via Datastax Enterprise), commit logs are more or 
> less plain text. Thus, an attacker would be able to easily read, for example, 
> credit card numbers in the clear text commit log (if the calling app does not 
> encrypt the data itself before sending it to cassandra).
> I want to allow the option of encrypting the commit logs, most likely 
> controlled by a property in the yaml.
