TruGrid Secure RDP is the simplest way to secure access to RDP systems.

The freedom to work from anywhere often requires connecting to remote desktops, VDIs and servers. Since it is built into Windows, Microsoft RDP is one of the most widely-used methods for remote work. As a result, open RDP ports are a rich target for hackers. Security Organizations estimate that there are nearly 11 million RDP ports open* to hacker attacks, and the FBI reports* that hackers are brazenly attacking unprotected RDP ports with stolen credentials. TruGrid Secure RDP makes your RDP systems invisible to hackers.

There are many ways to secure access to RDP, including VPN connections, RD Gateway implementations, and various third-party solutions. All of these solutions vary in their effectiveness, cost, and complexity. TruGrid Secure RDP is simple, secure, and cost-effective. It is currently free for up to 5 corporate users.
