  • Microsoft Drivers 5.8.0 for PHP for SQL Server

Introduction

Always Encrypted with secure enclaves is the second iteration of the Always Encrypted feature for SQL Server. Always Encrypted with secure enclaves allows users to perform rich computations against encrypted data by creating a secure enclave - a region of memory on the server where encrypted data in a database is decrypted so that computations may be performed. The supported operations include comparison and pattern matching with the LIKE clause.

Enabling Always Encrypted with secure enclaves

Support for Always Encrypted with secure enclaves is available in the PHP Drivers for SQL Server starting with 5.8.0. Always Encrypted with secure enclaves requires SQL Server 2019 or later and version 17.4+ of the ODBC driver. Further details on general requirements for Always Encrypted with the PHP Drivers for SQL Server are available here.

Always Encrypted with secure enclaves ensures the security of encrypted data by attesting the enclave - that is, verifying the enclave against an external attestation service. To use secure enclaves, the ColumnEncryption keyword must identify the attestation type and protocol along with associated attestation data, separated by a comma. Version 17.4 of the ODBC driver supports only Virtualization-Based Security (VBS) and the Host Guardian Service (HGS) protocol for the enclave type and protocol. The associated attestation data is the URL of the attestation server. Thus, the following setting would be added to the connection string:

ColumnEncryption=VBS-HGS,http://attestationserver.mydomain/Attestation

If the protocol is incorrect, the driver will not recognize it, connection will fail, and an error will be returned. If only the attestation URL is incorrect, connection will succeed and an error will be thrown when an enclave-enabled computation is attempted, but otherwise the behavior will be identical to the original Always Encrypted behavior. Setting ColumnEncryption to enabled will provide regular Always Encrypted functionality, but attempting an enclave-enabled operation will return an error.

Full details for configuring your environment to support Always Encrypted with secure enclaves, including setting up the Host Guardian Service and creating the required encryption keys, can be found here.

Examples

The following examples, one for SQLSRV and one for PDO_SQLSRV, create a table with several data types in plaintext, then encrypt it and carry out comparisons and pattern matching. Note the following details:

  • When encrypting a table with ALTER TABLE, only one column may be encrypted for each call to ALTER TABLE, so multiple calls are required to encrypt multiple columns.
  • When passing the comparison threshold as a parameter for comparing char and nchar types, the column width must be specified in the corresponding SQLSRV_SQLTYPE_*, or the error HY104, Invalid precision value, will be returned.
  • For pattern matching, the collation must be specified as Latin1_General_BIN2 using the COLLATE clause.
  • When passing the pattern matching string as a parameter for matching char and nchar types, the SQLSRV_SQLTYPE_* passed to sqlsrv_query or sqlsrv_prepare should specify the length of the string to be matched and not the size of the column because char and nchar types pad whitespace on the end of the string. For example, when matching the string %abc% against a char(10) column, specify SQLSRV_SQLTYPE_CHAR(5). If you instead specify SQLSRV_SQLTYPE_CHAR(10), the query will match %abc% (with five spaces appended), and any data in the column with fewer than five spaces appended will not match (so abcdef would not match %abc% because it has four spaces of padding). For Unicode strings, use the mb_strlen or iconv_strlen functions to get the number of characters.
  • The PDO interface does not allow specifying the length of a parameter. Instead, specify a length of 0 or null in PDOStatement::bindParam. If the length is explicitly set to another number, the parameter is treated as an output parameter.
  • Pattern matching does not work against non-string types in Always Encrypted.
  • Error checking is excluded for clarity.

The following data is common for both examples:

<?php
// Data for testing - integer, datetime2, char, nchar, varchar, and nvarchar
// String data is random, showing that we can match or compare anything
$testValues = array(array(1, "2019-12-31 01:00:00", "abcd", "㬚㔈♠既", "abcd", "㬚㔈♠既"),
