Viewer Security Connection Level :
Prima IP
offers three levels of security for viewer connection. On the drop-down combo box,
you can just choose either one of the three viewer security levels as appropriate to your real
demands on viewer connection security:
Level 1 - No SSL encryption, no SSL authentication
Level 2 - 256-bit encryption, server authentication by client
Level 3 - 256-bit encryption, full authentication (requires the installation of certificates)
Level 1 uses No SSL data encryption and No authentication. This is the most straightforward setting that
opens most convenience if there are no security concerns at all. Anyone who have a viewer and internet
connection could easily connect to
Prima IP
as long as the user passes the policy requests.
Level 2 uses SSL encryption for viewer connection, but only requires server-side authentication by viewer
client. That is, remote users who want to make viewer connections are not require to install certificates on
their client computers. However, the viewer connection is encrypted with 256-bit SSL technology to ensure
any data contents transmitted via the viewer connection is protected, including keyboard, mouse and video
signals.
Level 3 uses 256-bit encryption as well a bi-directional PKI authentication between
Prima IP
server and
viewer client. With this level of setting, all remote users who want to make viewer connection at all, should
require installation of a proper client certificate, which is signed by the same private key of the CA that
issues the root.crt and server.crt of
Prima IP
.
There are altogether nine possible combinations of Viewer Security Password Policies that are
available for a flexibility to adapt to your security needs.

password here in order to make successful viewer connection with

setting - 256-bit encryption, full authentication (requires the installation of certificates).

provided on the Support CD ROM disc.

from the Certificate Authority that issues those certificates.
