IguanaX 10.1.105 introduces the ability to enable and disable log encryption to secure data at rest stored in your IguanaX Log Directory on disk.
...
| Note |

If upgrading from a previous IguanaX version, old unencrypted logs will remain in the logt log directory and a new log directory called loge will be generated by Iguana to store encrypted logs. You will no longer be able to access the old logs in the logt directory when log encryption is enabled. |
Log encryption can be quickly enabled and disabled in Iguana’s Settings:
