tsweb / security

Hi,

how secure is it to connect to tsweb? is the password encrypted?
Should i use SSL?

What about using remote desktop connection directly (mstsc.exe) - is
the password encrypted there?

Thanks, Dani

The password used in an RDP session is always encrypted. However, to
ensure highest security in your interactions with a web page, it is
always advisable to use SSL in these scenarios.
