Usage Notes
The Data Encryption field specifies whether or not the messages to and from the database for the given request on the given session are to be encrypted. The session encryption process, which could be more accurately described as “Network Traffic Encryption,” provides for user-enabled full session encryption, including SQL and Data requests and responses.
