getEncrypt Method (SQLServerDataSource)

Download JDBC driver

Returns a Boolean value that indicates if the encrypt property is enabled.

Syntax

  
public boolean getEncrypt()  

Return Value

true if encrypt is enabled. Otherwise, false.

Remarks

If the encrypt property is set to true, the Microsoft JDBC Driver for SQL Server ensures that SQL Server uses TLS encryption for all data sent between the client and the server if the server has a certificate installed.

If the encrypt property is unspecified or set to false, the driver will not enforce the SQL Server to support TLS encryption. If the SQL Server instance is not configured to force the TLS encryption, a connection is established without any encryption. If the SQL Server instance is configured to force the TLS encryption, the Microsoft JDBC Driver for SQL Server will automatically enable TLS encryption when running on properly configured Java Virtual Machine (JVM), or else the connection is terminated and the driver will raise an error. If the encryption property is not set, the getEncrypt method returns the default value of false.
