In Adaptive Server OLE DB Provider, SSL provides the following levels of security:
After the SSL session is established, user name and password are transmitted over a secure, encrypted connection.
When establishing a connection to an SSL-enabled server, the server authenticates itself—proves that it is the server you intended to contact— and an encrypted SSL session begins before any data is transmitted.
A check of the server certificate’s digital signature can determine if any information received from the server was modified in transit.
