About Encryption Modes

The encryption mode determines how much of a document is searchable when a user searches for a document from a document list, such as when the Published status is selected.

The table below lists the type of encryption mode and a description of its characteristics.

Encryption Mode

Description

Normal (recommended)

Full text searching, including the document title, keywords, and content.

High

Only the document title and keywords are searchable. (You add keywords in the first step of the Properties Wizard.) This encryption setting may cause documents to take longer to open.
