Start Using Your Server

HTTPS

Remote Access is secure because the connection between the remote computer and the server is
done over HTTPS. HTTPS uses the encrypted Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol, the same
protocol used for banking transactions and retail commerce.

User Account with Strong Password

Remote access does not allow logging on from the Guest or Administrator account. Moreover,
user accounts must be enabled for remote access, which requires a strong password to ensure that
authentication is as secure as possible.

Note

If you have configured a Domain name to your server, any photos that are placed into the HP
Photo Viewer are viewable by any one that finds your domain. The Photos that are found and
seen in this manner cannot be deleted or modified. Deleting photos can only be done by users that
have successfully logged into the server with a user account and password.
