Configuring logon security
Symantec pcAnywhere automatically secures logon information by using
symmetric encryption to encrypt the user ID and password. You can configure
the logon process to protect the host computer from unauthorized access and
denial of service.
See “Using encryption to protect data” on page 211.
Note: Logon information might not be encrypted if either the host or remote is
running a previous version of pcAnywhere that is not configured to use symmetric
encryption.
