Ros are you asking because you're not using a secure connection for remote access currently, i.e. an open port on the firewall for RDP access? just trying to figure what the tie in is with "recent ransomware attacks".For the past 4 years we have been using Microsoft DirectAccess which is a server role as part of windows server. It works best with windows 10 as 7 has some issues, should be fine with 8.Basically it creates a secure connection to the network seamlessly in the background when it detects that your computer is no longer on the local network. You get full access as if your were on the local network, albeit a little slower (depending on your internet connection).Its all managed through group policy and works really well.Of course this only works with Windows computers running enterprise edition. I believe there are third party apps which extend DirectAccess to work for home and pro as well as MacOS.If your using N4L, i believe they have a VPN solution. Most router/firewall vendors generally have IPSec VPN capability.

Wondering what, if any, remote access you are providing to teachers in the wake of the recent ransomware attacks and if so, by what mechanism.ThanksRos Lee
