+TLS can be used for server validation when a client connection requests encryption. If the instance of [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] is running on a computer that has been assigned a certificate from a public certification authority, identity of the computer and the instance of [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] is vouched for by the chain of certificates that lead to the trusted root authority. Such server validation requires that the computer on which the client application is running be configured to trust the root authority of the certificate that is used by the server. For additional information about server certificates and encryption, see [Using TrustServerCertificate](/dotnet/framework/data/adonet/connection-string-syntax#using-trustservercertificate).
