Re: Is RDP Safe

very little difference but theoretically someone could perform a brute force
attack against the TS port. (TSGrinder?)

There is the thought that 'less ports open, less attack points' you probably
want HTTPS for other reasons (OWA/OMA/RPCoverHTTPS) and if RWW is the only
method used then the RDP proxy port (4125) is only opened, to the specific
requesting IP address, after authentication via SSL.

Is loggin to SBS throgh Remote Desktop Connection safe, which seems to be
less step than rww. I opened just port 3389 on router and enter the ip
address , goes to sbs machine straightway. What security risks are there?
