<h3>Does ownCloud support file encryption on the server?</h3>
<ul>
<li>Yes, but the Encryption app is designed to protect your data on external storage, rather than on the server ownCloud runs on. In the current design, the server always has the keys to the data. They are encrypted by your password, but you can't trust that it is as secure as client-side encryption. ownCloud does not do client-side encryption because you can not have a web interface if the server can't read the files and the web interface (and sharing abilities!) are very central to ownCloud. So you will always need to be able to trust the server if you want to 'own' your data. Read more <a href="https://owncloud.org/blog/how-owncloud-uses-encryption-to-protect-your-data/" target="_blank">in this article</a>.</li>
<li>If you really want client-side encryption, we recommend you look for other solutions. Of course, if you are sufficiently knowledgeable and skilled, you would be more than welcome to improve on the file encryption technology. If you are interested in supporting or working on this feature, check out <a href="https://github.com/owncloud/mirall/issues/275" target="_blank">github</a> for the latest state on the discussion about it and check out <a href="/contribute/" target="_blank">owncloud.org/contribute</a> to get started.</li>

<h3>Does ownCloud use delta-sync (only syncing file changes)?</h3>
<ul>
<li>We introduced chunked, parallel up- and download with ownCloud 7 and the ownCloud 1.6 client. Syncing only file changes needs much deeper changes. It is on our roadmap, but won't be done soon. Find some <a href="https://dragotin.wordpress.com/2015/02/09/incremental-sync-in-owncloud/" target="_blank">background on that decision here</a>. If you want to speed up the development of this feature by working on it, see <a href="https://github.com/owncloud/mirall/issues/179" target="_blank">the github discussion</a>. If you really want this feature and would like to specifically fund work on it, see <a href="https://www.bountysource.com/issues/905030-sync-only-the-file-change-not-entire-file" target="_blank">the Bountysource page</a>.</li>

<li>ownCloud is designed to be very scalable, and be independent of the used storage system. We want it to work with terabytes of data and tens of thousands of users - and it does, organizations like CERN in Switzerland and big universities run ownCloud with such amounts of data and users. The downside of this is that it is hard use 'checksums' to see if files are changed: imagine doing that on terabytes of data on an external storage! What is fast for a few gigabyte or a few thousand files is would break entirely once you add a large movie- or music database, or start pumping scientific data through the system.</li>
<li>A second design goal of ownCloud is reliability. We would rather be slower, but ensure no files are lost, than risk going fast-and-loose with user data. For example, the file-change-notifications on Linux and Windows are not 100% reliable in all cases, so just-to-be-sure we run a full file system scan periodically. Yes, that eats battery life, but it does ensure you do not lose any of your files!</li>
</ul>
This does not mean there is no room for improvement, we work very hard to make ownCloud faster and every release introduces many performance improvements. Also, help is always welcome. Check out the <a href="https://github.com/owncloud/mirall/" target="_blank">client code on github</a> if you are interested in the challenges of fast, scalable and reliable file syncing!
