MS SQL Server 2005 Adds Security Features

nycsubway writes "Microsoft is planning to add in its own encryption and decryption to its newest version of SQL Server. From the article: 'The company is writing complex encryption and decryption functionality directly into the product so customers don't have to procure security features from a third party, or roll their own when the product becomes generally available next year.' I would also hope the default sa/password will no longer be there."

What you mean that it doesnt have them already?
Man that frightening we have to wait till 2005 to get security features. Microsoft must be so out of date! Why not look at MySQL or postgres ?
