### Encryption
-Support for encrypting Accumulo's persistent and over the wire data was added.
[ACCUMULO-998][ACCUMULO-998], [ACCUMULO-958][ACCUMULO-958], and
[ACCUMULO-980][ACCUMULO-980] cover encrypting data at rest in write ahead logs
and rfiles. [ACCUMULO-1009][ACCUMULO-1009] covers encrypting data over the
wire using SSL.
+Encryption is still an experimental feature, but much progress has been made
since 1.5.0. Support for encrypting rfiles and write ahead logs were added in
[ACCUMULO-958][ACCUMULO-958] and [ACCUMULO-980][ACCUMULO-980]. Support for
encrypting data over the wire using SSL was added in
[ACCUMULO-1009][ACCUMULO-1009].

+When a tablet server fails, its write ahead logs are sorted and stored in
HDFS. In 1.6.0, encrypting these sorted write ahead logs is not supported.
[ACCUMULO-981][ACCUMULO-981] addresses this issue.
