| 69 <p>The tools support both, encryption of the resource content and encryption of the resource name. Each resource is encrypted separately. With activated name encryption, the actual resource name is disguised by a random name but the name used by the client is stored encrypted as a WebDAV property. This means, an attacker can see the directory structure and the file length, but can't guess the file names and in particular which files have the same name.</p> | 71 <p>The tools support both, encryption of the resource content and encryption of the resource name.
