Data at rest encryption, TLS, application-level encryption–different encryption ways protect from different threats.

Application-level encryption is closely related with data flow and can drive you to the engineering decisions of various complexity.

For example, take a look at client-side field-level encryption in MongoDB or proxy-side transparent field-level encryption in database protection suite Acra.

In this video, Anastasiia Voitova aka @vixentael, Head of customer solutions at Cossack Labs, explains how different encryption ways work and how you can make your app more reliable and resilient to various threat models.
