Does SourceOffsite encrypt data over the unsecure port or will I need to have SSL?

SourceOffSite doesn't support SSL, but it does support encryption. By default, SOS uses 8888 for the unsecure port and 8890 for the secure port. However, you can use any port number you wish, as long as it's not in use by another application. Also, you can disable one of the ports. SOS only needs one port open for its operations.

For more information about encryption and security in SOS see this KB article:
