128-bit AES encryption
Encrypt connections using 128-bit AES, for high performance encryption. This means that all data transmitted in either direction while connections are in progress—keystrokes and mouse movements made by users; screen captures sent back in order to display the desktop—are resistant to packet sniffing and tampering, man-in-the-middle attacks, and other malicious eavesdropping.

256-bit AES encryption
Encrypt connections using ultra-secure 256-bit AES, for ultra-high performance encryption. This means that all data transmitted in either direction while connections are in progress—keystrokes and mouse movements made by users; screen captures sent back in order to display the desktop—are resistant to packet sniffing and tampering, man-in-the-middle attacks, and other malicious eavesdropping.
Available in:
- Enterprise
-
Single sign-on authentication
Automatically authorize users to connect using the credentials they have already entered to log on to their own computers. Note all computers must be in a managed network environment, with (for example) a Kerberos authentication server.
Available in:

Powerful deployment tool
Windows only (other platforms coming soon). Deploy, install, and license VNC on computers from a central location. Configure VNC from a management console (for example, to change authentication or encryption settings).
