Veeam Cloud Connect uses two di erent encryption technologies: SSL (Secure Socket Layer) and AES (Advanced Encryption Standard). SSL is a generic term related to a family of communication encryption technologies In more detail, Veeam Cloud Connect uses the latest TLS (Transport Layer Security) protocol and never fails back to older and insecure versions of SSL AES is also used together with SSL. It’s a symmetric encryption algorithm, and the de-facto standard for advanced data encryption During the initial connection between a customer and a service provider, the communication channel over a single TCP port (6180 by default) is protected with SSL By verifying the SSL certificate published by the service provider, and comparing it to the hostname the provider is using for publishing Veeam Cloud Connect itself, the customer is assured that he is effectively connecting to the chosen service provider
