Is encryption supported?
Though bookmarks are not encrypted on the server, the synchronizer supports three levels of traffic encryption which can be set from the Firefox menu Tools / Foxmarks / Settings… / Advanced, Security. The options are: • No Encryption – send username/password and all bookmark data in the clear. • Password Only – encrypt username/password but not the bookmark data. • Encrypt All – encrypt both username/password and all bookmark data on its way to the server. If you are behind a firewall or proxy which blocks https traffic, then you will need to pick option 1.
SecureNym now supports both PGP and S/mime server-side encryption. This allows users to have all incoming messages automatically encrypted before being saved to your mailbox. Additional S/mime information may be found here. Whether using the web interface or most mail clients, SecureNym offers SSL encryption. SecureNym also strongly recommends PGP or S/mime. By installing PGP or an S/mime certificate on your computer, and uploading the public key to SecureNym, all messages in the mailbox are fully encrypted with a key that only the user can unlock. Even when messages are sent to a recipient that does not use PGP or S/mime, his reply will be fully encrypted with your key upon arrival at SecureNym. SecureNym never has your private key, so only you can decrypt a message.
