What CGPulse checks
A resource passes this rule when properties.encryption.services.blob.enabled must equal true OR encryptionEnabled must equal true. Anything else is reported as a finding with the evaluated property value attached as evidence.
How to fix it
Enable server-side encryption to protect data at rest from storage compromise. In AWS Console: S3 > Bucket > Properties > Default encryption > enable. See: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/default-bucket-encryption.html
