Directory Services

We are looking to see if having our directory services in and Ldap type of system would be better than using the internal one. We are looking to store users information that require encryption of certain extra data.

I'm not quite sure how to answer your question without more details. If you want to use FusionAuth as an external directory, you could encrypt sensitive data and store it on the user or registration objects. While there is built in support for managing keys you'd have to build the actual encryption logic yourself; you can't mark a user field to be 'extra encrypted' in FusionAuth at this time.

That might be an interesting feature; feel free to file a feature request with more details.
