Businesses need powerful tools to lock down their remote sessions and limit the risks. That’s what RDS-Knight does. Working Hours Restriction and Homeland Protection features allow administrators to control the time and place of remote connections. These two powerful security features are included both in the Essentials and Ultimate Editions.

This means that for a user who is supposed to work exclusively on weekdays, from 9 AM to 5 PM, RDS-Knight can be configured to prevent sessions from opening and the sessions that are already open can be automatically closed after warning the user that they are operating outside of their assigned hours.


By default, RDS-Knight warns the user 2 minutes before it automatically closes the session...

From the App dashboard, Administrators can see the related event and easily define Working Hours parameters such as the warning delay (by default 2 min) and message, the working times and the local time zone.
