asked on

laptop stolen scenario.. bitlocker- how much can it help?

if the laptop is stolen, and a database is in it.. the laptop has bitlocker..

does that guarentee 100% that the database will be secure? (if the hacker can break in the login regardless of bitlocker, then with windows authentication, they can read the database- and that is the main concern)
