USB Network Gate permits to secure connections by enabling traffic encryption and authorization.
These options can be enabled in “Share USB device” window when you share a USB device:

- Select a USB device you want to be shared.
- Click “Sharing options” button.
You can customize the following settings to secure connection:
Enable traffic encryption – All data, sent from or to the USB device, will be encoded. Note, that traffic encryption may slow down the communication speed.
Enable authorization – Password is set on the server side, and the same password should be entered on the client side in order to get access to the USB device data.
Note: In Linux version, you can change traffic encryption and/or compression settings on the go for already shared devices. Just double-click in the corresponding field opposite the required shared device and configure them as needed.
