Security

From Woofgui

  • We should check how safe woof is. It is the same port that is used (which is fine), but is this port when it is offering a file easily hackable?
  • A killer-feature for our software would be if the HTTP-connection could be SSL-encrypted. There's a python-library out there doing the heavy-lifting: [1]. What we need to find out is how much trouble it is for the user to get a SSL-certificate to use. Can we just generate one on the fly, let it be unsigned by official organizations and still get good encryption without hassle?
