Reporting over the Internet is safe, but not without risks. Communications from
RealSecure agents are encrypted, and ICEcap Manager requires an account name and
password to submit data.
VPN connections using the point-to-point tunneling protocol encrypt packets sent over
the Internet, adding an additional layer of security between remote systems and ICEcap
Manager.
RealSecure agents can also be configured to report events through a proxy server.
