 ## Remarks  
-Implicit conversions have been added to maintain backwards compatibility with boolean behahavior for the <xref:Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnectionStringBuilder.Encrypt%2A> property. When converting from a boolean, a value of `true` converts to <xref:Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnectionEncryptOption.Mandatory%2A> and a value of `false` converts to <xref:Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnectionEncryptOption.Optional%2A>. When converting to a boolean, <xref:Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnectionEncryptOption.Mandatory%2A> and <xref:Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnectionEncryptOption.Strict%2A> convert to `true` and <xref:Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnectionEncryptOption.Optional%2A> converts `false`.
