* we cannot guarantee that the session key cannot be obtained by someone with access to your application or the machine hosting your application (although that in itself would already imply a severe security breach)
* the ARC4 encryption -- the default provided by Firebird -- is considered to be a weak (maybe even broken) cipher these days
* the encryption cipher uses ARCFOUR with a 160 bits key, this means that the unlimited Cryptographic Jurisdiction Policy needs to be used (or at minimum a custom policy that allows ARCFOUR with 160 bits keys).
