Attention: To align with new corporate security policies, and to match policies adopted by other communities within Oracle, the My Oracle Support Community access requirements will change beginning September 18, 2025. MOSC will now require that member accounts in our community be associated to a *corporate* email address. This means that users with generic domains (such as gmail.com, yahoo.com, and others) will no longer be granted access to the discussion forums and ideas labs. If this policy affects you, act now to change the email address that is associated with your Oracle (and community) account. Alternatively, you can opt to create a new Oracle account that uses your corporate email domain.

Can an External Table be Encrypted

Jul 7, 2022 2:08PM in Database Administration (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered

Hi

Database Version

Oracle Database 19c Enterprise Edition Release 19.0.0.0.0 - Production

Version 19.10.0.0.0

We have a possible need to use an encrypted file as the source for an external table, either at file or folder level.

Is this possible and if so, how would we go about it?

Thanks,

Neil Emery
