I would not suggest Encrypting every field but find some way to encrypt certain things. Yes, it will slow everything down, your storage space will increase, development will take a hit and you too would not be able to view, update data in the back end. Personally, I like to get to the data directly for trouble shooting, mass updates, testing, etc... too much encryption will cause you greif in the long run, find a balance. And don't forget this should run in a Secure Socket.
