RE: RDP over the internet

[William Baltas <bill.baltas () cleanwaterteam com>]

Mario,  Don't leave port 3389 open on the Internet at all, the port is much too vulnerable.  If you need to perform 
remote administration, do this through a VPN tunnel or use a third party service such as gotomypc.

Good Luck,
Bill

Subject: RDP over the internet

Hi all I would like to know what are your opinions of using RDP over the internet on a Windows 2008 R2 server? Are 
there any major known exploits or vulnerabilities? How safe is the server with having port 3389 open to the internet.

Rgds,
Mario
