Is there a good way to check, from within the database, whether or not database sessions are utilizing network encryption? I know you can look at the *network_service_banner* column of *v$session_connect_info*, but the text format makes it difficult to parse effectively... not to mention that I'm not certain that it's always populated (thinking of JDBC thin clients here). The databases in question are all 11.2.0.3/11.2.0.4, running under a combination of Linux X86-64 and Solaris SPARC 64-bit.

We're thinking of enabling opportunistic network encryption in the near future, with the goal of it eventually becoming mandatory. I'd therefore like to be able to identify plaintext sessions from within the database, so that we have an idea of which applications / groups will need to make configuration changes.

Thanx!
