# How do you add data security to PlanetScale?

*Domain Solution · PlanetScale*

CipherStash encrypts sensitive fields at the value level on PlanetScale, so a breach yields ciphertext with no usable key. Every encrypted value carries a decryption policy enforced at decryption time, after the query and after the API response. Attackers with stolen application credentials decrypt nothing.

## Who's asking

Engineering lead or security-conscious developer responsible for hardening a PlanetScale deployment, looking for a control that works without rearchitecting the app.
