.
By default, RiskServers on non-unix platforms offers a
reasonably secure mechanisms that encrypt your password before it is
even sent over the network.
This means that when you logon to riskservers.com or risksvr.com with
Netscape (c) or Internet Explorer (c) the password is sent encrypted.
Anyone monitoring your session(s) would not see the password you have
typed in.
Unfortunately,
this mechanism does not work on some versions of Netscape that run on Unix/Linux
platforms.
Indeed, Netscape on Unix/Linux will send a form as it is typed by the
user, even if the field is blanked or overwritten afterwards!
If you are a Unix or Linux user or If
you need to ensure much higher security levels to protect your portfolio or the portfolio of your customers, positions and
analysis remain completely confidential we recommend that you use SSL.

the engine might run slower due to the SLL overhead!
