I am wondering if synchronization by wifi is crypted.
I hesitate to use wifi if I am in an hotel for example
Thanks |

A wifi is encrypted depending on the standard which is established between the phone and the router (WPA...), so unauthorized listeners should not be able to get the contents, however the router or other connected clients cannot be considered unauthorized because it is a legal communication partner.
As there is nothing in the documentation about extra encryption beyond what is provided by the operating system, I would not expect such. Because of the WiFi synchronisation restricted to the clients on the same router, it is obviously intended for use on a local network with all components under the user's control.
WiFi networks for public often (or mostly ?) have client isolation, which means that clients on the same router can not connect to each other but to the internet only - this prevents other guests from connection attempts but that would also prevent two own devices from connection and making synchronisation over that network impossoble (in a home network, such an option needs to be turned off, if available).
I would suggest not to use a public wifi in a hotel or elsewhere for synchronisation, instead use Bluetooth or USB connection. These etablish a point-to-point-connection without third-party components. |
