Encryption in a custom connector
My IT dept requires in-transit encryption. I have a data source that, when using the generic SQL Server connector, will not connect with encryption. I built a custom connector with SupportsEncryption = true based on the Direct Query for SQL Server sample. I can connect to the data source now with the Encrypt Connections box checked and the connection works.
Does the simple switch of SupportsEncryption = true actually enable encryption or is there more that needs to be included?
