SecureCRT® SecureCRT combines rock-solid terminal emulation with the strong encryption, broad range of authentication options, and data integrity of the Secure Shell protocol. The security of your network is critical — it is more important than ever to protect passwords, user accounts, data, and computer systems. SecureCRT provides secure remote access, file transfer, and data tunneling for everyone in your organization.

SecureCRT gives you an encrypted Secure Shell (SSH1 and SSH2) session with servers and devices. For SSH, Telnet, Telnet/SSL, and other protocols, SecureCRT's tabbed sessions reduce desktop clutter and make it easy to switch between sessions and organize groups of connected sessions. Extensive session management and customization features include named sessions, and multiple-session windows. Choose from a wide range of emulations including VT100, VT102, VT220, ANSI, SCO ANSI, Wyse 50/60, Xterm, and Linux console. SecureCRT can help you save valuable time by automating routine configuration tasks with powerful scripting capabilities.

SecureCRT 6.1 extends your ability to customize your workflow and automate routine tasks with new session management and scripting capabilities. You can search from the Connect dialog, disconnect and reconnect all tabbed sessions, and launch a remote command or application when you connect to a session. Scripting enhancements include support for accessing session options, accessing the clipboard, and sending special keys. Additional logon options allow you to save usernames and passwords with keyboard-interactive authentication and enter Secure Shell logon credentials in the terminal window making it easier to script logons.

New logon options increase control of connection setup.

New for SecureCRT 6.1

New session management options:

• Search for a specific session or session folder: The Connect dialog supports searching for a session name, hostname, folder name, or keyword in the description.
• Disconnect and reconnect all tabbed sessions: New menu items allow all disconnected sessions to be reconnected and all connected sessions to be disconnected.
• Launch a remote command on connecting: A new session option allows a remote command or application to be launched as soon as the session connects, which makes it easy to have a session dedicated to a specific task.
• Save username and password with keyboard-interactive authentication: The username and password can now be saved when using keyboard-interactive authentication, streamlining the logon process.
• Enter Secure Shell logon information in the terminal window: A new option that allows logon credentials to be entered in the terminal window makes it easier to script SSH1 and SSH2 logons.

Scripting enhancements:

• Access session options: Support for getting and setting session options makes it possible to do things like configuring a session before connecting and converting session information stored in a file to saved sessions.
• Windows Clipboard access: New Clipboard scripting functions provide access to the currently selected text and also to available Clipboard data, which allows setting up actions such as running a script that uses the contents of the Clipboard to send a command to the session, or selecting text in the session and running a script which launches a web browser to google that text.
• Send special keys: Added scripting support for sending special keys such as function keys, control keys, and other special characters, which makes it easier to write scripts that are protocol and emulation independent.
• Error handling: Two new functions, GetLastError and GetLastErrorMessage, provide a way to detect and report details of errors when running scripts.
• New example scripts: SecureCRT includes scripts for doing useful tasks like running a google search on selected text and sending a command to all the connected tabs.

Key Features

• Wide range of terminal emulations: VT100, VT102, VT220, ANSI, SCO ANSI, Xterm, Wyse 50/60, and Linux console, with support for ANSI color with color schemes in all emulations.
• Extensive session management features: Tabbed UI with ability to move tabs in and out of SecureCRT windows and the Activator tray utility minimize desktop clutter. Session settings can be saved in named sessions.
• Multi-session launch: Folders and multiple selected sessions can be connected in tabs from the Connect dialog, the command line, or launched at startup in an auto session. Right-clicking on a folder connects the sessions in tabs.
• Protocol support: Supports SSH1, SSH2, Telnet, Telnet/SSL, RLogin, Serial, and TAPI protocols.
• Secure Shell: Secure Shell encrypted logon and session data, including support for the following:
  - Port forwarding secures TCP/IP data
  - Password, public-key, keyboard-interactive, X.509, and Kerberos authentication
  - AES, Twofish, Blowfish, 3DES, and RC4 ciphers
  - X11 forwarding
  - Activator support for SSH Agent functionality.
  
• File transfer: Secure file transfers via SFTP, and via Xmodem, Zmodem, and Ymodem when used in conjunction with SSH1 or SSH2.
• Integration with SecureFX® file transfer client: SecureCRT and SecureFX can share the global options, session options, and the host key database so you only need to perform operations like setting application defaults, sessions settings, or accepting a server's host key once. SecureCRT and SecureFX can share passwords and passphrases while either application or the Activator utility is running and both SecureCRT and SecureFX sessions are displayed on the Activator menu. Launch either application from a toolbar button and specify a session to connect to. A combined installer is available that installs both clients and their DLLs into the same folder, making it easy to install SecureCRT and SecureFX and keep them in sync.
• Configuration: Extensive session and keyboard customization including a button bar which allows you to map buttons to configuration commands or actions, such as sending strings, running scripts, menu functions, and protocol commands. Different button bars can be created for specific sessions or operations.
• Powerful printing: Printing support, including pass-through printing.
• Scripting support: Scripting language support for VBScript, JScript, and PerlScript. A script recorder automatically creates a VBScript based on keystrokes, including function keys.
• FIPS 140-2 support: When an administrative option to run in "FIPS Mode" is set, SecureCRT uses a FIPS 140-2 validated cryptographic library and only allows FIPS-approved algorithms.
