Enterprise Archive supports TLS encryption, providing you with an option to enhance the security of your outbound journaled email messages. The TLS protocol over SMTP is a certificate-based authentication method that provides security-enhanced data transfers by using symmetric encryption keys. However, using TLS is not mandatory. If you decide to set up your Domino Server to use TLS encryption, Enterprise Archive automatically accepts the encrypted messages as they are forwarded by your Domino Server, decrypts them, and stores them in your archive.

You can find detailed information about setting up TLS (SSL) for Domino Server at the IBM website.

Note

Using TLS is not required for setting up Journaling, but it is recommended for security.
