Feels like you answered your own question here - why not just use HTTPS for 
your multisite sync?

I'm not aware of any other encryption mechanisms for metadata (I guess using 
SSE encryption for your data may save that going over in plain text) and would 
assume that just using HTTP would indeed be a security risk.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [ceph-users] Multisite sync: is metadata transferred in 
plain text?

Hi,

We have a multisite Ceph configuration, with http (not https) sync endpoints. 
Are all sync traffic in plain text?
We have concerns about metadata. For example, when syncing a newly created user 
and its access key and secret key from the Master zone to a secondary zone, is 
this traffic in plain text? If so, what are options to encrypt it?

Thank you,
Mary
