8 The following components of <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> use encryption to
9 protect sensitive data:

14 When using the <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/vbox-ext"/> provided by
15 Oracle for VRDP remote desktop support, RDP data can
16 optionally be encrypted. See <xref href="vrde-crypt.dita#vrde-crypt"/>.
17 Only the Enhanced RDP Security method (RDP5.2) with TLS
18 protocol provides a secure connection. Standard RDP Security
19 (RDP4 and RDP5.1) is vulnerable to a man-in-the-middle
20 attack.

25 When using the <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/vbox-ext"/> provided by
26 Oracle for disk encryption, the data stored in disk images
27 can optionally be encrypted. See
28 <xref href="diskencryption.dita#diskencryption"/>. This feature covers disk
29 image content only. All other data for a virtual machine is
30 stored unencrypted, including the VM's memory and device
31 state which is stored as part of a saved state, both when
32 created explicitly or part of a snapshot of a running VM.
