    I use Visual Studio to remotely manage my database. My question is: If I set "Encrypt=True" in the connection string, will the connection be encrypted? Your support staff told me encryption can only be enabled in my ASP.NET website. But I think actually it should be enabled in remote connection, not in local connection.

    We have SSL certificates installed on our SQL Servers. When you connect to a server with Management Studio with "Encrypt connection" check-box checked, you connection is secure. Please take a look at the following KB article.
