You can get this through a Preflight check (part of Pro or Extended), which can then be called by a batch sequence. If you've never used the Preflight tool, check out the following tutorial:
http://www.acrobatusers.com/tutorials/digging-preflight-tool-chest.

Create a new preflight check and select the Document Group and "Is encrypted" property.
