Integrations

Every CipherStash integration, by category: the Postgres platforms encrypted data lives in, and the query layers that read and write it.

Every integration below writes the same ciphertext into the same EQL columns, so none of them is a one-way door. You can move a table from one to another without re-encrypting it, and use more than one at once — an ORM for application queries, raw SQL for migrations.

Database

Where the encrypted data lives. EQL installs into any Postgres you can connect to, with no extension and no superuser.

ORM

How your application queries it.

Not on this list? Any ORM works without an integration — encrypt before a write and decrypt after a read with the Stack SDK, which is what the integrations do for you. CipherStash Proxy covers the case where you cannot change the application at all, and the SDK also encrypts values that never reach Postgres, including non-Postgres stores like DynamoDB.

Still deciding

Choose your stack walks the four decisions in order: SDK or Proxy, your Postgres, your ORM, and your identity provider — including which identity providers can bind decryption to the signed-in user.
