Isn't there some model where the keys that you use to decrypt the database are acting something like one time codes, and you have to use particular credentials to access the key server? So the attacker would need to be able to stay in the network to be able to actually access the data -- they couldn't just download the entire database and crack it offline. I don't know how that actually is implemented, but just curious on that.. I also wonder how many people put things in their various systems that are obvious attacker trip-mines -- like having some fake button that says like "copy image of database to disk" or something that the actual internal employees are told to never click that button -- but maybe they have even some confluence page that talks about "how to download the database", but is actually a fake entry meant to trip up an attacker in case they get access to your confluence pages as well as your database.. so they click that button and the admins get alerted...
