Kaseya uses an integrated application firewall which monitors all web-based communication going to and from the Windows server that Kaseya is hosted on. This provides an added level of security by enabling Kaseya to log and potentially block malicious activity or application security attacks.
Kaseya strongly recommends that all web-based communication be encrypted using a security certificate. If you have visited Google or a financial services website, you will notice the “HTTPS” and a lock icon in your browser’s address bar to indicate the communication between your browser and the website is encrypted. Kaseya uses TLS for all secured HTTP and WebSocket connections.
To enable secure web traffic, the Kaseya Application Firewall needs a security certificate to be imported. The security certificate and its corresponding private key allow for communication to be encrypted and prove the identity of the server.
