Remote Desktop Encryption
- by Kumar
My client is RDP 6.1 (On Windows XP SP3) and Server is Windows Server 2003. I have installed an SSL certificate on server for RDP. In the RDP settings (General tab), the Encryption method is set to SSL/TLS 1.0 and Encryption level is set to "Client Compatible". I have following questions
In this case is it guaranteed that all communication is encrypted even when I remote login to the server? I mean pwd is encrypted
Does RDP always use some kind of encryption even if there is no SSL certificate installed on the server?
In this case I do not see security lock in the connection bar. When I set encryption level to "High" then I see security lock. I do believe that communication is both cases will be encrypted. Is it true?
Please reply to my questions
Thanks in advance
Kumar
