    SQL Server 2005 encryption

    I've got a table with some encypted data, and I'm not sure how to decrypt it. The encrypted data is a TSQL statement. Given these columns and data, can anybody tell me which encyption method is being used, and/or how to decrypt it?

    If that were possible, wouldn't be much of an encryption method then would it?

    Problem is that we have no way of knowing if it was encrypted using something in SQL Server, or if it was encrypted outside of the database and only the encrypted data was passed in. Could be a 100 different ways it could have been done.

    Agreed, but I have seen these guys use base64 to "encrypt" data.

    Problem is that we have no way of knowing if it was encrypted using something in SQL Server, or if it was encrypted outside of the database and only the encrypted data was passed in. Could be a 100 different ways it could have been done.
    That's where I'm stuck at. I was hoping given the data, someone might recognize the encryption method. If not, no big deal, it was a long shot, but I thought I would try here.
