How do you tell if an Attachment is encrypted

Hi,

Does anyone know how to query the sys_attachment table to tell if an attachment is encrypted or not?  Is there another table that needs to be looked at?

Thanks,

Victor

Hi @Victor43 .
To my knowledge, there is no generic approach to identifying if a files content or the file itself is encryted.
- ServiceNow offers a partial solution, but only if ServiceNow itself is responsible for managing the encryption.

I'm not sure if there is any standardized way of doing this outside of ServiceNow. But to my (limited?) knowledge of ServiceNow  there is no "is encrypted" field or indicator in the platform, yet alone the capabilities to identify it...
