Oracle Label Security, which used to be known as "Trusted Oracle" is, to
my knowledge, not generally available. DBMS_OBFUSCATION was renamed to
DBMS_OBFUSCATION_TOOLKIT and it is a simple package which allows you
encrypt and decrypt things using DES and DES3 (aka "triple DES")
encryption. It doesn't say anything about the keys. As far as obfuscation
toolkit is concerned, one can have the key written on a sticky and
attached to his screen. I even saw that once.
DBMS_OBFUSCATION_TOOLKIT is not a security solution, nor was it ever
intended to be one.
