Ok.. Will it be secure if the data is encrypted. mysqldump will show
encrypted data right.
Actually I want to know what is the best practice for such applications. Can
I say that encryption alone is sufficient to secure my data. Or is there any
other strategy used for data protection?

Hello all,
I have a requirement of maintaining some secret information in the
database. And this information should not be visible/accessible to any
other person but the owner of the data.
Whilst I know that encryption/decryption is the solution for this, are
there any other level of security that I can provide to this?
Which is the best security technique used in MySQL to store seceret
information.
PS: Even the database admin should not be able to access anybody else's
information
Then you're stuffed - *someone* has to be able to see everything so you
can do a mysqldump.
*Someone* has to be able to see everything so you can grant permissions to
the other users too :)
