Application Security (Local)

OPTION DESCRIPTION
Application Security (Local) Secure your local Remote Desktop Manager with a custom application password, with the computer's credentials as the application password, or with Windows Hello (must first be configured on your local machine). You will be prompted for this password when opening your application. You can also choose to not set any application password.
New password / Confirm password If Use application password was selected in the Application Security drop-down list, enter an application password in the New password field, then enter it again in the Confirm password field.
Encrypt local files using the application password If Use application password was selected in the Application Security drop-down list, check this option to use the previously created application password to encrypt your local Remote Desktop Manager files.
Advanced Options This option is only available if Encrypt local files using the application password was enabled. Clicking it opens a new window. In this window, define the Number of key derivation iterations, which is the number of derivations used for the key derivation function during encryption. A larger number is safer, but may affect performance. The default value is 1000.
Force currently logged on username and domain If enabled, forces the use of the username and domain used to log in the current Windows session.

Certificate Security

Enforce certificate revocation check Check this option to enable the validation that the certificate has not been revoked. This is necessary if any of the URLs for certificate validation are unavailable for any reason.

Other

OPTION DESCRIPTION
Enable secure desktop If enabled, secure desktop opens password dialogs on another desktop to add an extra level of security and prevent keyloggers from logging what you write.
Disable all events on sessions Check this option to disable all events configured on session entries.
