Is there any possibility to encrypt all existing stored procedures of a SQL Server 2008 database AFTER they have been created via an SQLCMD script?
The reason I want to
I wrote a cursor, steps through and encrypts most objects.
DECLARE cur_ENCRYPT_ANTHING CURSOR READ_ONLY
FOR
SELECT STUFF(src.definition,
CASE WHEN CHARINDEX('AS' + CHAR(13),src.definition,1) = 0
THEN CASE WHEN CHARINDEX('AS ' + CHAR(13),src.definition,1) = 0 THEN CHARINDEX('AS ',src.definition,1)
ELSE CHARINDEX('AS ' + CHAR(13),src.definition,1)
END
ELSE CHARINDEX('AS' + CHAR(13),src.definition,1)
END,3,'WITH ENCRYPTION AS' + CHAR(13))
FROM (SELECT o.name
, STUFF(RIGHT(sm.definition,LEN(sm.definition) - CHARINDEX('CREATE ',sm.definition,1) + 1),1,6,'ALTER') AS definition
FROM sys.sql_modules AS sm
JOIN sys.objects AS o ON sm.object_id = o.object_id
WHERE CAST(CASE WHEN sm.definition IS NULL THEN 1
ELSE 0
END AS BIT) = 0
AND type <> 'TR'
) AS src
DECLARE @VLS NVARCHAR(MAX)
OPEN cur_ENCRYPT_ANTHING
FETCH NEXT FROM cur_ENCRYPT_ANTHING INTO @VLS
WHILE (@@fetch_status <> -1)
BEGIN
IF (@@fetch_status <> -2)
BEGIN
BEGIN TRY
EXEC (@VLS)
END TRY
BEGIN CATCH
PRINT ERROR_MESSAGE()
PRINT ''
PRINT @VLS
END CATCH
END
FETCH NEXT FROM cur_ENCRYPT_ANTHING INTO @VLS
END
CLOSE cur_ENCRYPT_ANTHING
DEALLOCATE cur_ENCRYPT_ANTHING
