RdpGuard is a program for Windows that enhances the security of Remote Desktop Protocol connections. Users can protect servers from brute-force attacks, unauthorized access attempts and other cyber threats.
Prevention
The application detects and blocks IP addresses attempting brute-force attacks on RDP. By monitoring failed login attempts, it is possible to add malicious IPs to a blacklist, effectively preventing unauthorized access.
There is an option to define custom security rules tailored to specific needs. For example, IT administrators can set thresholds for login failures, specify IP address ranges and determine the duration of bans to align with company policies.
Saving everything
Designed to maintain detailed logs of all connection attempts, the software also saves successful logins and blocked IPs. You are able to access this information to analyze potential threats and receive real-time alerts about suspicious activities.
In addition to RDP, it is also possible to secure other protocols like FTP, MySQL and SMTP, providing a holistic approach to server safety. Such versatility ensures protection for various server-related apps.
