You have a choice. Have MSDE run, on a reserved account
- NTFS security
- Data Encryption
- Also, you can store data on a raw partition, that cannot be copied so
easily.
b.t.w. there is nearly no protection against harddisk access by a
technician. You can't blame MS for that. But data encryption by the
application that uses MSDE is a solution...
