pg_vault_tde v1.7.1 : Transparent Data Encryption for PostgreSQL 17 and 18

calendar_today September 10, 2026 domain postgresql

pg_vault_tde provides Transparent Data Encryption for PostgreSQL 17 and 18. A table access method, encrypted_heap , encrypts every tuple with AES-256-GCM before it reaches the storage manager and decrypts it after it leaves, so applications require no changes. Keys are held outside the database: HashiCorp Vault or OpenBao through the Transit engine, a PKCS#11 token or HSM, or a local PKCS#12 wallet.
