I couldn't find a related discussion on here that wasn't 5-8 years old, so I'm submitting it to the forum for help. :-) I need to connect to a SQL database, and read and write to the DB from my app. Since this is personal health data from a healthcare organization, I will need to implement a secure form of data transfer - point to point encryption, or whatever the best practice is for this. I can't find much on this topic. Many apps connect to hospital data, but I can't find how it is being done from iOS. Basically, how is this being done? what's the basic architecture, and lastly might there be a current tutorial on these topics? Thank you in advance! Not sure if the tag I chose is the correct one for this topic.
