# Security

Security in Remote Desktop Manager protects data through encryption, strong authentication, and granular access controls.

Harden access with an application password and multifactor authentication, and use roles, groups, and permissions with role-based access control to limit who can view or change entries, folders, and vaults. For centralized auditing and web-based reporting, integrate with Devolutions Server; for cloud teams, connect Remote Desktop Manager to Devolutions Cloud to simplify secure password management.
