The 'traditional' way of doing this was to route syslog through stunnel. A few years ago Rsyslog gained the ability to use TLS encryption for this, but the configuration for this is far from as simple as it should be.

This thread from last month is probably a good place to start

Hi All,

Could you please let me know different types of encryption algorithm used in 
rsylog.
Does user has option to select the type of encryption algorithm to be used ?
Can it be configured in rsyslog.conf file.
Please point to  the documentation or tutorial where I can get the
detailed info

are you looking for encrypting the communications between rsyslog systems? or 
encrypting the files that rsyslog writes? or ??
