Client-side encryption before storing in cloud #13

I don't know how it currently works, but having the ability to use client-side encryption, using my own private key, would be desirable.

Also storing the data in a "politically stable region", like for example The Netherlands or Switzerland, would be a plus also.

@marc-van-breemen, I can note that both of these points are difficult to implement. Your first proposal for client-server encryption can be implemented in the long term. The country to store the data in is a multi-factorial question, if it were only a matter of political stability... The current location also has its advantages, some of which would be lost for NativeRest in Switzerland.

If it's not information that you want to keep for yourself, can you tell where the data is stored?

And is the data stored with some sort of encryption instead of plain text?
