I have a perl script below which connects/writes to Oracle 9. It works very well.
But I want to use encrypted link (or Oracle Advanced Secuiry) to make the connection/write more secure.
What changes do I need to make in my Perl script and Oracle settings?
Thanks!

#!/perl/bin/perl
........
use DBI;
my $dbh = DBI->connect
( 'dbi:Oracle:host=xx.xx.xx.xxx;sid=xxx',
'name',
'password',
)
.....
my $info = "insert into table1 values('$user','$filename','$filesize','$time','$direction')";
my $sth = $dbh->prepare($info);
$sth->execute();
$dbh->commit();
.....
