Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) Support

5/10/2007

Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) is a protocol that provides more secure communication over IP networks. IPSec can improve the security of your network by enabling cryptographic services, peer authentication, and data validation.

Add the IP Security Tools and User Interface Component to your configuration to enable IPSec support. This component includes the IP Security Policies MMC snap-in that you can use to configure IPsec. For more information, see IP Security Tools and User Interface in Windows Embedded Studio Help.
