Quest Metalogix Storagepoint team has created a script from .NET code to verify the issue.
Run the below Script 1 or Script 2 to verify the encrypted passphrase can be read.
** You will need to be a Farm Administrator and Have access to Management Shell rights( SPShell admin right can be referenced here)

Sample Error Script 1
1) This is not a Quest product issue. We highly recommended getting assistance from Microsoft to get the issue fixed.
2) Once the issue has been fixed, please verify the issue using either one of the scripts again to get the expected output as shown below.
