Yes, I am sure.

Database encryption is the mechanism you should use to keep the data safe in the database. By encrypting the data stored in the database, even if an unauthorized person gains access to the database, they will not be able to view or make sense of the encrypted data without the encryption key. This provides an extra layer of security for the stored data.
