What encryption method is my current session using?

Asked by pjk00 in PC Anywhere Remote Access Software, Encryption for Network Security

Tags: , , ,

Sometimes for troubleshooting or other reasons, I want to ascertain what form of encryption is in use in an active session.

I thought there was a button or icon for this, but I can't find it in 11.5 or 12.1.  

Especially in 11.x and 12.x, where PCAW can apparently "upgrade" its encryption level during session negotiation, I never really know what method (PC-Anywhere encoding, symmetric, public-key), cipher (RC4, AES, etc) or strength (40-bit, 128-bit, 256-bit) is in use in any given session. It doesn't show up in the activity log either.Start Free Trial
