Does CFT encrypts the files on the moment of the transfer ?
Problem
After the connection is establish between partners (
using PESIT or SSL) is the data that is sent encrypted ?
Resolution
In a PeSIT SSL transfer, the file is encrypted (or not*) online, meaning during the transfer. (*depends of the cipher suites you are using).
It also means that the file is not encrypted on disk (sender and receiver side).
If the file sensitive and needs to be encrypted before the transfer, it should be done
at application level.
