Full and comprehensive security is built into all modules; everything from simple password protection through to integration with NT Security, Active Directory and 256 bit AES encryption. You can record and replay remote sessions for audit purposes – and even profile individual Control users and Client workstations to provide different security levels and capabilities.
NetSupport Manager supports Smartcard – any Smartcard login performed on the Control PC is re-directed and applied on the Client PC.
Key Security Features:
- Password protection of all systems.
