If you connect through a VPN it should be as secure as anything else you’re going to consider. *From:* full-disclosure-boun...@lists.grok.org.uk [mailto: full-disclosure-boun...@lists.grok.org.uk] *On Behalf Of *Jeffrey Walton *Sent:* Wednesday, June 09, 2010 5:04 PM *To:* Daniel Sichel *Cc:* full-disclosure@lists.grok.org.uk *Subject:* Re: [Full-disclosure] RDP, can it be done safely? Hi Dan, Where are the users located (local LAN or from an untrusted network such as the Internet)? If I recall correctly, RDP encryption is "turned on" from a GPO setting that applies to the host/server, and not just RDP [or was it strong encryption?] (corrections, please). So you can get a secure RDP connection at the cost of possibly breaking other functionality. You might find it easier to use another remote access solution.

So I have this idiotic Windows accounting application that MUST run on an application server, cannot be run from a client. Rather than have my accounting department log in directly to the physical box, I would like to have them use some flavor of terminal services on my Windows server. My question therefore is, can I turn on RDP safely, without exposing my Windows server to risk of exploitation? Thanks for any help you can give.
