Are my data Encrypted ?

My access database is in file format .accdb.  Is my data encrypted?
I am asking because I in help section see this information.

"When you do so using the .accdb file format, by default Access uses the Windows Crypto API to encrypt the data. Third-party encryption tools can also be used. Long Text (Memo) field history tracking Long Text (Memo) fields are useful for storing large amounts of information.

In fact I can't believe it is that simple  - something more complex must be done I am afraid!!

Best regards

You have to read it in the right (full) context:

Improved encryption    You can choose to set a database password and encrypt the contents of your database. When you do so using the .accdb file format, by default Access uses the Windows Crypto API to encrypt the data. Third-party encryption tools can also be used.

Encryption is off by default.
