mysqldump encryption?

[Ph0eniX]

Is there a way to encrypt mysqldump stream?

step 1: do a local mysqldump to a file. Encrypt this if you're so enclined.
step 2: use scp to copy from server to other server.

This will provide an encrypted stream to copy the file from server 1 to server 2.

In this case I can just dump the db locally and then download it via SSL.

Thanks.
