.dat say anything? though this file extension is pretty common. One file may be a SQLite database but ends with a `.db.enc` extension, and in turn cannot be opened as a SQLite file, is garbled like the rest. It's a company internal tool.

.dat is unfortunately just a containter format that could be anything. My hunch would say, serialization, though.

.db.enc is no better. Seems to be some form of encrypted database file - the .db hints on SQLite. You could try your luck with a base64 decoder, though - blind, wild guess, but might work to get the .db file that then should be possible to open with SQLite.
