Security in KVM-Over-IP Network Environments

We already talked about the differences between classical and IP transmission, our ControlCenter-IP and the network requirements. But what about the security in a KVM-over-IP network environment? Since dedicated cabling on the device is no longer required and the system works via the network, transmission security plays a very important role. In this video, we take a closer look at the various security features we have developed to increase protection in critical environments.
