You only touch on security briefly here, but I think it is one of the most important elements of remote access -- if you don't take steps to protect your remote access methods, they become open doors for attack. Encryption is always a good place to start, but I believe authentication is the key. Without strong authentication, all other security mechanisms are irrelevant. For me, that means at least 2-factor authentication, not just passwords, no matter how long or how often they change. Obviously, RSA SecurID and other random-number tokens exist, and they are often good solutions for large enterprises. My company provides a remote desktop solution protected by patented 2-factor security, with a free trial available at www.safetelework.com. I also have a blog about 2-factor security at 2factor.blogspot.com.

It’s true that security is one of the vital aspects of Remote Access, which is why on-premise remote access solutions are safer than hosted solutions. With an on-premise solution, the company will be operating behind the safety of its firewall. There are cost-effective on-premise hardware alternatives to expensive on-premise software solutions. An example is RHUB http://www.rhubcom.com appliance. It is firewall- and proxy-friendly, compatible with lockdown computers, allows file sharing/transfer, and you can access up to 1000 computers remotely.
