JDBC - Oracle thin - inner communication is crypted?

themopOct 31 2019 — edited Nov 6 2019

Hi, I'm looking for an information that I haven't saw around: the default oracle thin jdbc communication flow is obfuscated/crypted/compressed by default?

I mean: I know you can set some security options on both server or client, but in case no security is set the communication is plain text?

I've read that the account and password is passed with some crypto algorithm: this is true for all communication? or if a send a "select 'pippo' from dual" that I will see a "select 'pippo' from dual" passing through the channel?

Is there an oracle "official" document that describe this?

Thank you,

     marco
