Abstract

Embodiments are directed to mapping encryption policies to data stored in a database using a policy identifier, and to accessing data stored in a database using a policy identifier. In one scenario, a computer system receives an indication that identifies which type of encryption is to be applied when encrypting a specified portion of data stored in a database. The database has a database schema identified by a database schema identifier, where the database schema defines relationships for data stored in the database. The computer system then accesses a namespace that identifies a set of databases in which the specified portion of data is accessed in the same manner. The computer system also generates a policy identifier, which contains information including the namespace and the database schema identifier.
