Does anything exist for Windows RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) that is similar to SSH (in Linux) Public/Private key authentication (Instead of leaving normal password authentication open)?
I'm finding conflicting answers to this topic around the internet. I'm hoping to be able to just distribute a private key to client devices instead of using a complex password on every login (assuming I do not want to eventually disable password authentication totally).
2By refusing to incorporate a connection protocol that specifically prevents password-guessing, the halfwits at Redmond require that the remote machine be strictly no more secure than a machine infested with their insecure bloatware. Why am I not surprised when MSFT fails on the datasec front? – GT. – 2016-07-30T05:08:15.943
