Secure Data Transfer

Sepiola uses Secure Shell (SSH) for the data transfer. This means, that all transferred data is encrypted. This way, chances of data espionage are slim.

Public/Private Keys for a Password-free Login

To permit a password-free login, Sepiola creates a Secure Shell Public/Private key pair after the first start of the programme. The public key is copied onto the server. From now on, you will not receive a password request any more and your password is not stored any where on your system.
