t('Server Side Encryption can also be used on local storage. However, inherent to the concept of server side encryption, encryption keys will be present in memory of the Nextcloud server during the time a user is logged in and could be retrieved by a determined attacker. We take care to ensure keys are not stored unencrypted on permanent storage and at rest keys are encrypted using a strong cipher.');?>
t('Nextcloud supports pluggable encryption key handling. If you have an external key server, this can be made to work with Nextcloud.');?>
t('Our default encryption key handling enables administrators to set a system wide recovery key for encrypted files. This ensures that, even when users lose their password, files can always be decrypted. Encrypted files can be shared but after changing encryption settings, shares will have to be re-shared. Using our command line tools, data can be encrypted, decrypted or re-encrypted when needed.');?>
