Chapter 4. Security

WMI‐based administration scripts operating over a remote connection send 
data over the network in clear text by default. You can enhance security by 
modifying  WMI‐based  administration  scripts  to  establish  an  encrypted 
remote connection as follows: 
1.      Set an impersonation level of "impersonate" 
2.      Set an authentication level of "pktPrivacy" 
 
See  Appendix  A,  "Sample  Visual  Basic  scripts  for  configuring  BIOS 
settings,"  on  page  11  for  sample  scripts  used  to  implement  WMI‐based 
administration scripts that include these parameters for encryption.
