Archive group: Script to create new database with selected group and archive new database

[chrillek]

First off, I’m not sure what these “encrypted” databases really are. The manual says

Encrypted Databases: If you have databases containing sensitive or private information, you can create an encrypted database. This is specialized AES-256 encrypted disk image that will not appear in the Finder or your desktop when it’s open.

But @BLUEFROG stated that a password protected database is not encrypted:

Sync an encrypted database between devices - no database password necessary

Let’s keep the terminology clear (and it’s important, not pedantic)… There is no password on a sync location. There is an encryption key. Its function is to scramble the data when syncing and allows storing the sync data in an encrypted state. There is no encryption key on a database. There is a password. It does not encrypt anything. A password is the same as the key to a safe or a door. Only those with a key, those using the key, can open and get into it. So applying a password in the Databa…

Regardless: I’d still rather use some hardware protection than a password, if I had to. Passwords can be brute-forced or guessed.
