Servicenow Column Level Encryption Issue

Hi all,

 

We have a variable of type "encrypted field"  called secure information in the sc_task table. That field is also encrypted using a column level encryption. Meaning it has an Encrypted Field configurations record set up and an encryption context record. 

 

Question:

1. is this the right way of encrypting or should the variable be of type "string"?

2. if i keep the variable as type "encrypted text" should i delete the records in the Field encryption application?

 

Sorry but i am really confused why this was set up like this. 

 

See screenshots.
