Encrypt data

Applies To: Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R2, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 Feature Pack, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012

By default, Microsoft Dynamics AX sends data across a network by using the RPC_C_AUTHN_LEVEL_CONNECT function for remote procedure call (RPC). This function validates user credentials when a connection is established. You can also encrypt data if your security needs require data encryption. When you enable encryption, Microsoft Dynamics AX uses the RPC_C_AUTHN_LEVEL_PKT_PRIVACY function, which provides the highest level of security that is available through RPC.
