I think it's 128-bit SSL, that's all what I know about it, it's not the most secure solution for sure ... A few companies I know combine it with a VPN connection on top of EAS, to bring it that extra layer of security.

I know exchange activesync is using SSL encryption to transmit it's data (at least that's what the checkbox says is it TLS?). But I couldn't find anywhere where it documented what version of SSL or well anything about the encrypted tunnel at all. <br />

HTTPS is a protocol for secure communication over a computer network which is widely used on the Internet. HTTPS consists of communication over Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) within a connection encrypted by Transport Layer Security (TLS) or its predecessor, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). The main motivation for HTTPS is authentication of the visited website and to protect the privacy and integrity of the exchanged data. HTTPS is widely used for protecting page authenticity on all types of websites, securing accounts and keeping user communications, identity and web browsing private.
