Abstract:
When storing encrypted data within a database, a key identifier may be appended to the encrypted data as a prefix. Then, when decrypting the encrypted data, the key identifier may then be used to identify an encryption key used to encrypt the data, even when multiple encryption keys have been used in encrypting and storing the encrypted data as a whole.
