Gather Encryption Statistics

The Encryption Statistics and Data Sync page shows you how much of your data is encrypted by Shield Platform Encryption, and how much of that data is encrypted by active key material. Use this information to inform your key rotation actions and timelines. You can also use the Encryption Statistics page to collect information about the fields and objects you want to synchronize with the background encryption service.
Available in both Salesforce Classic (not available in all orgs) and Lightning Experience.
Available as an add-on subscription in: Enterprise, Performance, and Unlimited Editions. Requires purchasing Salesforce Shield or Shield Platform Encryption. Available in Developer Edition at no charge.

Customize Application
  1. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Platform Encryption, and then select Encryption Statistics.

  3. Click Gather Statistics.
    The gathering process time varies depending on how much data you have in your object. You’re notified by email when the gathering process is finished. When your statistics are gathered, the page shows updated information about data for each object. If encryption for field history and feed tracking is turned on, you also see stats about encrypted field history and feed tracking changes.
  • You can gather statistics once every 24 hours, either by clicking Gather Statistics or running the self-service background encryption service.
  • Feed Item doesn’t display statistics because it’s derived from Feed Post. Gathering statistics for Feed Post is sufficient to confirm the encryption status of both Feed Post and Feed Item.
