What is the default behavior regarding data encryption in OCI Object Storage?

In OCI Object Storage, encryption is enabled by default for all data stored within the service. This means that any object uploaded to the Object Storage automatically undergoes encryption without requiring any additional configuration or manual intervention from the user. This design ensures that all data is secured, maintaining confidentiality and integrity.

The encryption keys used for this process are automatically managed by Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, simplifying the security management for users. This default encryption feature helps organizations comply with various data protection regulations and safeguards sensitive information against unauthorized access.

This automatic encryption capability is a significant aspect of OCI Object Storage, ensuring that data is protected by default, unlike other options that imply additional steps or a lack of security measures.
