VI Web Access sessions with VirtualCenter are unencrypted.
Description
Discussion Text
User sessions with VirtualCenter should be encrypted since transmitting data in plaintext may be viewed as it travels through the network. User sessions may be initiated from the VI client and VI Web Access. To encrypt session data, the sending component, such as a gateway or redirector, applies ciphers to alter the data before transmitting it. The receiving component uses a key to decrypt the data, returning it to its original form. To ensure the protection of the data transmitted to and from external network connections, all VI client and web access sessions with VirtualCenter will be encrypted with a FIPS 140-2 encryption algorithm.
