# How do you replace row-level security in AWS RDS Postgres?

*Domain Solution · AWS RDS Postgres*

Every encrypted value carries its own policy enforced at decryption, after the query runs, so authorization travels with the data wherever it ends up rather than living in policies attached to the database.
