Marty, This post is very vague Let's start with what OS systems are running in your environment. Second, please provide some specific info on what your 'concerns with overall security' are. -----Original Message----- From: Marty [mailto:groupecci () yahoo ca] Sent: Wednesday, February 09, 2005 7:40 AM To: security-basics () securityfocus com Subject: Taking control of user's desktops Hi, My client's help desk requests for support is growing, with more than 1,000 users its understandable. We need to find a software (not an outsourced service) that will permit the technicians to take control of the user's desktop for support purposes. The user MUST agree to the technician taking control or even «peeking» at his desktop. We've looked at a few but my concern is with overall security. We used to have VNC installed on a few machines a couple of years ago but we removed it. Is the latest version of VNC sufficient (security wise)? Can you share your experience with us please? Suggestions or comments welcomed. Thanks! Marty __________________________________________________________ Lèche-vitrine ou lèche-écran ? magasinage.yahoo.ca
