Retrieves the maximum encryption strength of the current control.

This property is read-only.

Syntax

HRESULT get_CipherStrength(
  [out] LONG *pCipherStrength
);

Property value

The encryption strength.

Error codes

Return S_OK if successful.

Remarks

For Remote Desktop Web Connection, the cipher strength is always 128 because the Remote Desktop ActiveX control supports encryption up to and including 128 bits. The 128-bit control can still connect to 56 bit encryption Remote Desktop Session Host (RD Session Host) servers.

For more information about Remote Desktop Web Connection, see Requirements for Remote Desktop Web Connection.
