ISG News has posted a new item, 'Access to Windows Remote Desktop blocked from outside ETH'
In the last few weeks we discovered some attempted attacks on the Windows Remote Desktop feature from sources outside of ETH.
In order to protect both your machines and our network, we decided to block RDP access from ETH-external networks. If you still need access from outside the ETH network (e.g. from home) you have to first open a VPN connection to ETH and then start the Remote Desktop client.
More information about installing the VPN client is available here.
