The SAS IOM supports encrypted communication
with the metadata server. Use the METAENCRYPTLEVEL and METAENCRYPTALG system
options to define the level and type of encryption that SAS clients use when
they communicate with the metadata server.
If the METAENCRYPTALG system option specifies an encryption
algorithm other than SASPROPRIETARY (alias SAS), you must have a product license
for SAS/SECURE software. For more information, see the
SAS Intelligence Platform: Security Administration Guide.
