Microsoft Dynamics GP and Transparent Data Encryption (TDE)

Hello All,

Recently we have had a few questions regarding if any version of Microsoft Dynamics GP is supported with Transparent Data Encryption. At this time Transparent Data Encryption is not supported on any version of Microsoft Dynamics GP. If you are interested in trying TDE on your own we highly recommend doing so in a test environment to uncover any possible issues. One of the possible concerns is packet loss between client machines and the SQL server. For this reason we would recommend extensive user testing if you are looking at testing TDE.

If you would like more information on TDE here is are a few great articles:
