You can encrypt data on the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server by generating new or importing existing encryption keys that you enable on the server.

If Microsoft Dynamics NAV is configured with multiple service tiers, then you must first enable encryption on one server and then export the key so it can be imported to another server where you enable encryption.

The following table describes a sequence of tasks, with links to the topics that describe them. These tasks are listed in the order in which they are generally performed.
