That was my own suggestion, I have been on the ruby and rails mailing
list asking how to do secure programming via encryption support. I
looked for ruby gems, not much and was not impressed, most the two I
found has performance limitation, so can't use them in a real world.

Possibly there is as gem or plug-in I haven't come across yet, but the
rails and ruby board didn't provide me with much help.

My last solution is to to write a module in C for Ruby being a C++
developer and pass it on to the community to take it over, possibly
GnuPG would be a nice to start with.

Unfortunately I don't know much about cryptography, even using the
APIs so that is something new for me to learn.
