That depends on your needs. Do you want to encrypt the entire table and access is transparently? Then Cryptor would be my recommendation. Or, is all you need to encrypt text files, or fields in a table? Then you could use the Microsoft CryptoAPI or encryption FLLs like FoxCrypto.FLL (http://fox.wikis.com/wc.dll?Wiki~FoxCrypto~VFP).

If you use anything but Microsoft's CryptoAPI, you need to take export restrictions into account. For example, you can't export application that use cryptography to countries like Iraq, Cuba, etc. Other countries like France only permit encryption algorithms that are easier to crack. In France, for example, you the Microsoft extended provider (128-bit) might not be installed, just the basic provider (40-bit).

Finally, your needs depend on performance considerations. Secure encryption tends to be slower than less secure encryption.
