Why doesn freenigma encrypt attachments yet?
sectiontext Because we would have to first send the file to our server in order to encrypt it. And from a security perspective, that isn’t a clean solution. And we would then have to scan for viruses on our freenigma server because otherwise freenigma might encrypt infected files that could then only be scanned after the recipient has decrypted the file. Thus any virus scanners on the mail server or on the recipient’s mail client would be bypassed. We’re considering a solution. Until we have implemented it, we might temporarily create a file encryption upload on the freenigma server – if there are many requests for this. Of course we also would like to support the upcoming Google File-Manager.
