Hello Josip,

At the current time, only File daemon does encryption.  So the answer to
your question is: no we cannot do data encryption on SD->SD transfers. 
It could be an interesting project for someone though (not me, because I
have tons of other things to do at the momen) :-)

Best regards,
Kern
