I was working through some of the tutorial on disconnected apps and saw that there was a section on data security there.
 
I was just wondering, with all of the high-profile stories re: people losing their laptops with the entire corporate database loaded on it, wouldn't it
make sense to --automatically-- encrypt the data cache?
 
Using isolated storage would also make sense.
 
Why give individual developers the opportunity to make a serious mistake?  Plus, it'd seem to be a very good selling point for the product.

I like your idea, but it is too high level to implement as as an IdeaBlade interface.  Rather, I see where a company coulkd develop a library routine to do this, taking into account error handling, type of encryption, , disconnected options, etc.
 
I like the idea that a company would make it a standard for developing all of their applications.
