shimra 14 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 If I have the pay version of Evernote, I was wondering if an employer could see my Evernote notes if I access Evernote web through the employers network. My understanding is there is some sort of security certifiate feature in the pay version. I'm assuming there isn't a hidden keylogger at work, and am just wondering if it would block the employer having access to my notes through the regular network traffic if I access the web version at work. Thanks. Link to comment
engberg 89 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 All network communications with Evernote go over HTTPS for Premium accounts. This includes web browsing and thick-client synchronization.Free accounts use HTTPS for user authentication (so your password is protected), and HTTP for note traffic.As a result, unless your local machine has been modified, no one should be able to see your notes via the network. Relevant local modifications might include something like a key logger, but it would also be possible for a Windows machine to be configured so that SSL was not secure. (Your employer would need to substitute the normal SSL handler so that the traffic would be encrypted to a local endpoint, then re-encrypted to Evernote. This isn't common.) Link to comment
