Security Options

In the Security pane, you can set the level of security for incoming connections to this Parallels physical server.

The security levels regulate the encryption of data between the server and client applications connected to it.

Specifying Security Settings

Minimum Connection Security

  • High . The most protected type of connection. All types of data transmitted between the Parallels physical server and Parallels Management Console are encrypted. It may result in a lower performance of the virtual machine graphical console in client applications that are installed remotely.
  • Medium . The optimal level of data protection. The commands, events, and input data transmitted between the Parallels physical server and Parallels Management Console are encrypted, while the video and devices data is not encrypted. This level of security allows to encrypt the most important data without affecting the virtual machine graphical console performance. This security level is the recommended one.
  • Low . The fastest type of connection security that is less protected than the other connection modes. The data transmitted between the Parallels physical server and Parallels Management Console is not encrypted.

After you have set the security level, you should restart the Parallels Server application to save the changes.
