We actually set db_aecurefile parameter to always on all of our instances and have only seen positive results.

Of course the setting change only applies to newly created lobs after the setting is changed. LOBs created before have to be converted through a move/reorganize.

Of course the tablespace has to be ASSM or you will get the respective error.

We own advanced compression and advanced security and the deduplicte that come with advanced compression has proven very beneficial for several of our apps.

The Lob compression works very well and I have found medium compression on LOBS to work well. I tried high but the CPU usage outweighed the benefit for our needs.

As always YMMV
