Ways to assess host security
The Host Assessment Tool lets you check the configuration of your host connection
items to ensure that you are taking advantage of the security features in
pcAnywhere. It helps you identify areas where you might be at risk.
The Host Assessment Tool only checks for the security settings that are supported
by your computer configuration. For example, case-sensitive passwords are
applicable only if the host computer uses pcAnywhere authentication. If the Host
Assessment Tool detects that your computer is not configured to support a specific
security feature, that feature is not included in the scan.
