You can decrypt a database using the CREATE DECRYPTED DATABASE statement. As with the CREATE ENCRYPTED DATABASE statement, you are creating a copy of the file (in this case, in decrypted form), and not actually overwriting the original database file.
Decrypt a database (SQL)Connect to an existing database from Interactive SQL.
Decrypt the database using the CREATE DECRYPTED DATABASE statement.
The first statement creates an AES256-encrypted copy of the demo.db database called demoEncrypted.db,. The second statement creates a decrypted copy of demoEncrypted.db called demoDecrypted.db.
CREATE ENCRYPTED DATABASE 'demoEncrypted.db' FROM 'demo.db' KEY 'Sd8f6654*Mnn' ALGORITHM 'AES256'; CREATE DECRYPTED DATABASE 'demoDecrypted.db' FROM 'demoEncrypted.db' KEY 'Sd8f6654*Mnn'; |
If there are transaction logs, transaction log mirrors, or dbspaces associated with the database, decrypted copies of those files are made as well. See CREATE DECRYPTED DATABASE statement.
