If you want to share files, then install guest additions and enable file
sharing in vbox. If you want to perform networking functions between the
host and guest, you can use the "Internal Networking" or "Host Only
Networking" options. These allow multiple VMs on the same host to
communicate with each other too.

If you have a single VM, then you could as well use the "NAT" option, where
by default "10.0.2.15" is assigned as IP of guest via DHCP and "10.0.2.2" is
the internal virtual interface's IP of host.

If an encrypted connection is what you want, then you can create a VPN
server and client design (using OpenVPN maybe) in one of the options
mentioned above. It's the same process as creating a VPN server and client
design between two machines in a normal scenario right, or am I missing
something here?
