    Please let me know if the EFS (Encrypted File System) on IBM-AIX operating system can be used to Encrypt the Oracle Database Files ?

    I am having Oracle 11gR2 running on AIX 6.1

    I would appreciate if you provide me any useful documentation, paper, urls or any additional info on same.

    TIA
