Can SQLite Databases Be Password Protected?

SQLite database password protection: feasibility discussion

Q: Can a SQLite database be password protected like an Access database?

Answer: Yes. SQLite databases can be password protected. A user password must be set before any database operations can be performed.

In C#, you can use the following code:

<code class="language-csharp">SQLiteConnection conn = new SQLiteConnection("Data Source=MyDatabase.sqlite;Version=3;");
conn.SetPassword("password");
conn.Open();</code>

Subsequent database access can use the following code:

<code class="language-csharp">conn = new SQLiteConnection("Data Source=MyDatabase.sqlite;Version=3;Password=password;");
conn.Open();</code>

Other instructions:

• Password protection prevents the GUI editor from accessing data unless a password is provided.
• Some editors may decrypt the database if the password is known.
• The encryption algorithm used is RSA.
• The database password can be changed using the ChangePassword() method.
• You can use ChangePassword(String.Empty) to reset or remove your password.
