I want to access my home PC from outside from time to time.
Is it safe to enable port RDP forward on a home router and remote desktop home Windows 8 from a remote location?
Is another layer of SSH or VPN necessary?
Basically I don't want the traffic, especially the authentication information, to be eavesdropped by a third party. Assume the remote PC is safe.
How would you rdp into a Windows 8 home machine? – Canadian Luke – 2013-05-21T05:53:18.017
Ask Microsoft, is remote desktop software safe to use!!! – Sepahrad Salour – 2013-05-21T05:56:03.093
The question of trust is hard to answer...can you really trust either endpoint? Should your home machine trust a connection from a device which clearly promiscuously touches others, and should you allow your remote device to trust a home machine(s) which most likely has no restrictions and many users. – f1assistance – 2013-05-21T15:32:26.387
