The same as SNMPv1 - a (plain-text) community string.
You can control which community strings are recognised, and from what
IP addresses.
But that's basically it.   If you want anything more secure (e.g.
authentication, encryption, protection against replay attacks, etc),
then you need to be looking at SNMPv3
