Windows is providing many powerful GPOs but most of Windows system administrators aren't comfortable
Executive Summary: Windows is providing many powerful GPOs but most of Windows system administrators aren't comfortable enough with such kind of system restriction policies; And it remains often uncertain that the requested security rules will be enforced exactly as expected. RDS-Knight stressed security fundamentals to keep remote access usage in a safe zone and allow you in one click only to easily limit user rights within each session environment.
If you are like most administrators of Windows networks, your primary thrust of attention is towards the Active Directory enterprise. There are potentially thousands of these remote desktop user accounts on a medium to large network, so there are many avenues for these accounts to get out of control. Minimising the attack surface with carefully controlled access is an important part of the first line of defence to prevent RDP threats. For Windows Administrators, securing Remote Desktop user environment is a demanding task. Because of the complexity of the Group Policy, the process is both energy and time-consuming. Group Policy is the mechanism that is used to distribute reduced privilege settings to all computers where the user needs to be limited. The first step is to configure the User rights, which govern the methods by which a user can log on to a system. They are applied at the local computer level, and they allow users to perform tasks on a computer or in a domain. Once these settings are in place, the user account will now be controlled, not only in function, but also for tracking in case an intruder attempts to attack your network with the account. Windows itself states: These rights authorise users to perform specific actions, such as logging on to a system interactively or backing up files and directories. Keep in mind that changes made to user rights can have a far-reaching effect. Because of this, only experienced administrators should make changes to the user rights policy. Until now. RDS-Tools releases RDS-Knight, an amazing cyber security tool to turn any Administrator into a Windows Security Expert.
In one click, RDS-Knight will enforce for the administrator the best security practice. With the "One Click to Secure Desktops" feature, setting the security level of their choice is a breeze . This administrator wizard enables the selection of one user and the use of a simple preference scrollbar to apply the appropriate security level. It will instantly apply the best level of security expected to be achieved for the Remote Desktop user’s environment. One click and it's done. Amazingly efficient, and fast. No one can dream about such outstanding capability. It is as easy to do it. user per user or to set it up per group without any fuss or worry. Assigning rights to groups rather than individual users will simplify user account administration. User rights that are assigned to a group are applied to all members of the group while they remain members. More than a time-saver to protect RDS server, RDS-Knight is providing more security without complexity. In a few minutes, the Administrator will get what he wants: the best security level for each connected Remote Desktop session.
Moreover, the security applies immediately: no need to reboot or for the user to log off/log on. It is the RDS-Knight service which takes care of it and it does it live. Of course, a more advanced RDS Administrator can decide to go deeply into the configuration of the User Rights Policies by clicking on the "Customize Security Level" button. This feature provides the freedom to drill down into details. The administrator can see the results, per user, of their preferred Security Level. They can adjust some of them for this user (increasing or enabling it or this Windows feature). The administrator can strengthen their Windows server protection with just a few clicks and enforce good practice within a minute to suppress usual Windows threats.
