However, "In conventional RethinkDB deployments, users typically run their application server within the same closed network as their database servers. In that specific kind of environment, where the database isn’t exposed to the public internet, there’s typically little need for encryption."

I would push for more companies to actually encourage encryption locally too. Perimeter security is no longer sufficient.
