Cloud Sync encryption?

tekguru · 17. May 2020

I'm using Cloud Sync to sync Onedrive & Onedrive for Business to the NAS inside various non-encrypted folder shares.

When I set up the sync tasks I didn't choose the option to encrypt the process. I'm wondering now whether I should have done that.

Thoughts please guys...

Nothing that goes on the cloud is unencrypted for me.

For Cloud Sync, Synology offers a NAS-independent decryptor program, Synology Cloud Sync Decryption Tool. Unfortunately for you, there exist only Windows and Linux flavors.

For One Drive storage, you may find Cryptomator of interest.

I know some of that

However I'm trying to work out if the sync task should have ben set as encrypted.....

OK... so comprehension isn't my best talent

I guess that depends on how "private" you want to keep the data. IIRC, Cloud Sync doesn't encrypt file/folder names, so perhaps that could be a concern as well.

The data on Onedrive does not need to be encrypted so I guess I'm okay....

Then you have the advantage of working directly from One Drive should the need arise.
