I do not disagree. There are many products in the market that "seamlessly" encrypt data. But, vi has had encryption for almost 30 years, so there is clearly no barrier to app writers. As more development moves to the cloud, encryption comes almost free at the app layer. The only thing left is the legacy apps... -- richard
