Security and Encryption
F2U protocol can be deployed using an SSL certificate. This allows F2U to wrap over HTTP. If an SSL certificate is used then the transmission is carried encrypted over HTTPs. This adds a slight overhead (5%) over the traffic data but offers encryption at an industry-standard level. If the new generation of F2U is used, then UDP packets are encrypted using Digital Fountain’s Raptor Codes. At the application level, Files2U application supports further authentication and authorization procedures that guarantee delivery to the recipient.

Famous quotes containing the word security:
“... most Southerners of my parents’ era were raised to feel that it wasn’t respectable to be rich. We felt that all patriotic Southerners had lost everything in defense of the South, and sufficient time hadn’t elapsed for respectable rebuilding of financial security in a war- impoverished region.”
—Sarah Patton Boyle, U.S. civil rights activist and author. The Desegregated Heart, part 1, ch. 1 (1962)
