So I'm thinking about how to save credit card numbers in the DB, for
re-charging cards for subscriptions, new orders, etc.
I'm also thinking about how to save passwords in the DB, not plaintext, but
not one-way encrypted either.
Any suggestions? How would I secure the database? I'm thinking some
abstract process in code, or something -- security through obscurity.
