Announcing SSL support for Tonido and TonidoPlug Users

Security is a big priority for us here at CodeLathe and we take it seriously. One of the top requests we have been getting from our TonidoPlug (and Tonido) users is using Tonido without worrying about data in transit.

Tonido will now support fully secure HTTP connections via SSL. If you don’t know or are not aware, the main idea of HTTPS is to create a secure channel over an insecure network. This ensures reasonable protection from eavesdroppers and man-in-the-middle attacks. Therefore the content you view over a Tonido web server HTTP connection cannot be seen by any thirdparties that are relaying the traffic.

Tonido has always supported AES encrypted P2P communications between two Tonido peers, but now encryption comes to the HTTP interface as well.
