Hi @Caron1
Thank you for your post.
Since all TeamViewer interactions are fully encrypted, this includes connections in LAN only mode as well.
In our Trust Center, you will find all detailed information about TeamViewers' security standards: TeamViewer Trust Center
We provide also more useful information in the following article about LAN connections: Can TeamViewer be used within a local network (LAN) only?
Please note, that some functionalities are not provided within a LAN connection.
I hope this could help. If there are any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us again.
Wish you a great Friday and all the best,
