<title>Security Considerations</title>
<body>
<p>The communication between the server and client is unencrypted and there is no authorization required to access
exported devices. An attacker might sniff sensitive data or gain control over a device. To mitigate this risk, the
device should be exposed over a local network to which only trusted clients have access. To access the device
remotely over a public network, a VPN solution should be used to provide the required level of security
protection. </p>
