Just download, start the application, and share your computer ID and pin with the other party.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-list-item\">\n<div class=\"q\"><b>Q: Is MSP360 secure?<\/b><\/div>\n<div class=\"a\">A: Yes, sure. All the channels are encrypted and all the connections are secured by SSL. Additionally, a brute-force protection mechanism ensures that outsiders can\u2019t access the host computers, even if they manage to access yours.<br \/>\nRemote access sessions require a computer ID and PIN in order to start. However, if you\u2019d like an additional layer of security, you can also choose to enable encryption or use your own encryption password. With encryption enabled, the target user must provide an encryption key in order to start a session. Once the session starts, it is fully encrypted using the RSA encryption algorithm.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"page-section\">\n<h2>Troubleshooting<\/h2>\n<div class=\"faq-list\">\n<div class=\"faq-list-item\">\n<div class=\"q\"><b><b>Q: <\/b><\/b><b style=\"font-size: 1rem;\">Where can I find answers to technical questions if I encounter an issue while using the product?<\/b><\/div>\n<div class=\"a\">A: In case you face any issue, please take a look at our <a href=\"https:\/\/kb.msp360.com\/remote-desktop\">Knowledge base<\/a>, or contact us via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.msp360.com\/contact.aspx?category=sales\">this form<\/a>.
