Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): writeaway

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

communication en clair

I'm not sure how common your source term is in EN, but this might be one possible option; I'm not an IT specialist, I hasten to add!

This is the term used by e.g. Canal+ for their unencrypted TV transmissions, and in essence, that's what your 'plain' means here.

Do check though, to see if this term is also used in IT.

une communication (un message) en langage clair (non chiffré)

Expédier ses emails sans cryptage SSL revient à envoyer un courrier en langage clair, non chiffré. Ces emails non sécurisés peuvent être facilement interceptés et lus par un individu non autorisé.

communication non cryptée ou non sécurisée

"non sécurisée" est plus vague que "non cryptée".
