You could write that kind of product on your own, if there is not any 
fully suitable for your purposes available - and release it to the

So you want to encrypt documents that are stored in ZODB? No problem. 
Write your own product which does it while encrypts the document after 
uploading the file to server.

Look at the code of CMF and Plone basic content types, shouldn't be too 
much of a hassle.
