MODIFY secrets TO ENCRYPT WITH PASSPHRASE='to encrypt or not encrypt, that is the question';
7. Modify the encrypted table's passphrase, and immediate verify and commit the new passphrase.
MODIFY secrets TO ENCRYPT WITH PASSPHRASE='to encrypt or not encrypt, that is the question', NEW_PASSPHRASE='now is the passphrase of our discontent changed';
