I only looked quickly, but I didn't see anything about encryption on the site. Are you sure it's encrypted out of the box?

If you mean encrypted data storage on the server, you're better off just storing all its files in an encrypted volume using something tried and tested like dm-crypt rather than having to trust ownCloud to get it right.

I agree. I was just referring to the title of the link which mentions encryption, something I didn't find on the site linked.

I use the turnkey linux appliance and it has SSL enabled out of the box.

Out of the box, no. There are plugins, but they encrypt on the server side.
