There are too many links to reference.

This is common security knowledge.

Maximum SecurityKaseya designed the Integrated IT Software Suite with
comprehensive security throughout. *The Kaseya design team brings over 50
years of experience designing secure systems for government and commercial
applications. Kaseya applied this experience to uniquely combine ease of use
with high security.
Kaseya Agent*
The Kaseya platform architecture is central to providing maximum security.
Each computer managed has a small agent installed. The agent initiates all
communications back to the server. Since the agent will not accept any
inbound connections, it is impossible for a third party application to
attack the agent from the network.
Firewalls
Kaseya does not need any input ports opened on client machines. This lets
the agent do its job in any network configuration without introducing
susceptibility to inbound port probes or new network attacks.
Encryption
Kaseya protects against man in the middle attacks by encrypting all
communications between the agent and server with 256-bit RC4 using a key
that rolls every time the server tasks the agent, typically at least once
per day . Since there are no plain text data packets passing over the
network, there is nothing available for an attacker to exploit.
