What RemoteBite's security code is
In every session, both computers show the same 6-digit code. It lets you check that the connection is end-to-end encrypted and that nobody is sitting in the middle.
Step by step
- 1Look at the code in your sessionIt's in the session toolbar, next to the lock.
- 2Compare it with the other computer'sWhoever is at it sees it in their RemoteBite window. Ask them to read it out.
- 3If they match, you're fineIf they don't, disconnect and connect again.
How it's worked out
Both computers derive it from the session keys, which only they know. If someone sat in the middle, the codes would be different.
