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.
