Applies to

  • StorageGrid 12.0
  • SSE (server-side encryption)

Answer

  • Enabling SSE on a bucket only encrypts new objects written after SSE is enabled.
  • Existing objects are NOT automatically encrypted when SSE is enabled on a bucket.
  • To encrypt existing objects, each object must be overwritten (rewritten/copied to itself) after SSE is enabled.

Example:

aws s3 cp s3://bucket/object s3://bucket/object
