At FWCloud we have kept safety in mind as one of our main objectives, both in design and implementation. Communications between the FWCloud-UI and the rest of the components are carried out using secure communication, but also the most confidential data are encrypted before being sent.

FWCloud generates a PGP key pair at each session. When you want to transmit data, such as the SSH username and password for the installation of the policy, the data is previously encrypted and then transmitted through a secure connection.

Next you can see an example of a response from the FWCloud-API for the login process:

PGP Response

In the API response is included the public key of the pair of PGP keys used to encrypt the data.
