I need to have the mysql data on my laptop stored in an encrypted state so that in case of the laptop being lost/stolen it will extremely difficult to recover the data without the password.
I don't wish to use whole disk encryption, due to the performance impact it will have on other disk-intensive programs' usage.
What could be the ideal solution for me balancing security and performance?
Thanks!
