Plex Security

When would I want to allow insecure connections? (What does this allow that secure doesn't) and why should I use secure connections? (What can someone do if it isn't)

 

Thanks

i *think* its when you connect from outside your local network that its 'Unescure'

Secure connections force the traffic to be encrypted. Some clients don't always support encrypted connections though so I allow unsecured on my local network but require secure connections outside the network.

Secured connections prevent someone from snooping on your traffic pretty much
