Yes, you can encrypt column data. A good place to start is this section
in Books Online:
ms-help://MS.SQLCC.v9/MS.SQLSVR.v9.en/udb9/html/96c276d5-1bba-4e95-b678-10f059f1fbcf.ht m

I've done a bit of work with Asymetic keys based on an article.
I dont believe this requires a login:

I'm just curios, what is the point of encrypting the column info if a
stored proc can be run which decrypts the contents? What is the main
goal of the encryption, just for casual browsers or to do the
encryption only in the DB side and the decryption in another layer, or
is that possible?
