            Encrypt Custom Fields in Installed Managed Packages

            If an installed managed package supports Shield Platform Encryption, you can encrypt custom fields in that package. Turn on encryption for custom fields in installed managed packages from the Encryption Settings page, and then apply encryption to custom fields in your installed managed package.
