How to encrypt basic authentication via SSL?

u Knowledge Tips

IIS 7.0 provides a variety of user authentication methods. If basic authentication is enabled, the password transmitted on the network is weakly encrypted and can be easily stolen. Therefore, SSL encryption can be used, so that the security of the user password is guaranteed.

Specific implementation steps are described in the play.

(1) Change the Web site user authentication method to Basic Authentication in IIS, as shown in Figure 5.1.
