hello the truth is that I do not have much idea of this I am more than C ++ and C # I would like to encrypt a specific table that would be the password in a database. My doubts
1-This is done on the php side by modifying the sql file or from the db administration web
2-Can someone pass me the code I'm looking for or tell me where I can study something about this?
Thanks in advance

I wouldn't recommend storing/hiding passwords with any type of encryption. A better method that a lot of people use nowadays is storing a salted hash of the password(s). One of the main reasons why this method is more secure than just simply encrypting passwords is because you don't need to encrypt or decrypt any values.

i suggest salting your password hashes or whatever
