    1. Navigate to Edge Encryption Configuration > Encryption Configurations > All.
      The Edge Encryption Configurations list is shown.
    2. Open the record for the encryption configuration to be changed.
    3. Click the Encryption type dropdown and select a new encryption type.
      Remarque :
      For attachments, only Standard AES128 and Standard AES256 are allowed.
    4. If needed, run an encryption or attachment encryption job.
