nonencrypted
Without protective coding
Nonencrypted describes data or communications that lack encryption—transmitted or stored in plain, readable form without protective coding.
Nonencrypted files can be read by anyone who accesses them: The email was sent nonencrypted, so anyone intercepting it could read the contents.
The term appears in technical and security contexts where encryption status matters.
