always-encrypted

I Have strange problem when i tried to publish my asp.net mvc application to my local (pc) iis with "Always Encrypted" Enabled. My application keep timeout when i tried to access database using EF6 at local IIS (not express) : But if i tried to access & debug my asp.net mvc app using Visual Studio 2017, database with 'always encrypted enabled' can be accessed perfectly without timeout. And also i can access it with SQL Management Studio without problem. Both (SMSS & ASP.NET web config) using this configuration. Column Encryption Setting=enabled; Note : I'm using ASP.NET MVC 5 & EF 6, SQL

I have a scenario where i need to have literals(hard coded strings) inside proc used against "Always Encrypted" columns, Since this fails with the following error, Operand type clash: varchar is incompatible with nvarchar(20) encrypted with (encryption_type = 'DETERMINISTIC', encryption_algorithm_name = 'AEAD_AES_256_CBC_HMAC_SHA_256', column_encryption_key_name = 'CEK_Auto4', column_encryption_key_database_name = 'DBName') I am trying to do Parameterization for Always Encrypted within the stored proc, similar to below GO CREATE PROCEDURE InsertProc @Var1 nVarchar(20) As BEGIN DECLARE

I am getting a SqlException : Operand type clash: varchar is incompatible with varchar(50) encrypted with (encryption_type = 'DETERMINISTIC', encryption_algorithm_name = 'AEAD_AES_256_CBC_HMAC_SHA_256', column_encryption_key_name = 'CEK_Auto1', column_encryption_key_database_name = 'PB') collation_name = 'SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS'\r\nIncorrect parameter encryption metadata was received from the client. The error occurred during the invocation of the batch and therefore the client can refresh the parameter encryption metadata by calling sp_describe_parameter_encryption and retry. My C# code

I was doing some demo in SQL Server 2016 for topic Always encrypted. Got few doubts. Below are the steps followed: In Database server (hosted in Microsoft Azure VM): In table MyTable , Created the Column Encryption Key (CEK) and Master Encryption Key (CMK) Select * from MyTable , shows encrypted data.(both from App and DB server) Exported the certificate from Database Server Imported the certificate in App Server (my Local machine) Added Column Encryption Setting=Enabled to the connection string of my application. It is working fine, now it shows the plain text data as expected. Doubt: In
