Dial-up Security (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

The server can ask for authentication in response to a connection request. Once a connection is established, authentication can be challenged for various requests. Both the Kerberos and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) authentication mechanisms are supported.

Sensitive information can be encrypted prior to being sent over the network. This prevents unauthorized users from viewing data in transmitted packets.

Default Registry Settings

You should be aware of the registry settings that impact security. If a value has security implications you will find a Security Note in the registry settings documentation.
