I have a user that is connecting to a remote desktop in order to access
websites from home that we normally block here at work.. I have blocked the
IP they are connecting to but incase they have another ip which is likely,
I want to just block outgoing requests all together. blocking 3389 doesn't
work.
Quite so, he could just change the port at home.
However what is the concern? I mean why are these websites blocked at work
(It sounds like some aren't the way you said it) - is it just time wasting
you are worried about or some security risk?
Quite honestly if he can access his home PC he could be running an HTTP
server on it to download from or if you allow FTP then an FTP server. I
think that HTTP issue might be a bigger risk than RDP. If he is doing stuff
via RDP at home then it's his home machine at most risk. I use RDP all the
time from work to exchange stuff between work and home.
