Hello All,

    Our organization is developing an electronic medical record for our
organization using ASP and SQL. The issue we are stuck at is how to ensure
the data hasn't been tampered. Obviously we can protect the data from our
regular users. But how do you protect it from the network administrators?
We want to be able to attest in court that the database hasn't been
modified. So I am curious how others are handling this issue. I see all
this stuff like digitial certificates and things like that, but am unsure
what is best (ideally we don't want have to buy certificates for each entry
into the database).

Please help.
