Remote Desktop by IDrive Protects Organizations from RDP Cyber Attacks and VulnerabilitiesLOS ANGELES, Oct. 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Remote Desktop, a remote access solution from IDrive that enables users to remotely access their RDP-based Windows computers and servers from any PC, Mac, Android or iOS device, is aiming to solve vulnerability issues with RDP by implementing robust access and security controls. The Covid-19 pandemic continues to have a major impact on the cybersecurity landscape. In fact, according to ESET's Q4 2020 Threat Report, there was a 768% increase in RDP attacks from Q1 to Q4 2020, mainly influenced by the shift to many businesses having their employees work from home. Attackers are able to steal sensitive data and compromise networks by taking advantage of desktops that are left unprotected. Serious risk factors that have led to the rise in RDP attacks are unrestricted access to RDP ports, and weak password which organizations rarely manage, leaving themselves vulnerable to password reuse DDOS attacks. By implementing the following security measures, Remote Desktop is able to assist organizations in protecting RDP:
Remote Desktop provides a secure remote access solution that does not require users to configure a VPN, Microsoft RD Gateway, public servers/IP, or firewall changes. This allows users to access their work, share files/folders, and manage their computer as if they are sitting in front of it, making it a suitable solution for remote work, remote learning, and work-from-home initiatives. Pricing for the service starts at $9.95/year per computer for unlimited users and unlimited remote access. Remote Desktop also offers a free 7 day trial for up to 5 users, no credit card required.
