TL;DR : Do not expose RDP or VNC to the Internet as you will eventually be hacked
Accessing your home or office computer is convenient and often necessary. But also problematic and may lead to security incidents. There are commercial solutions that handle the connection for you, but are costly for personal use. The wide-spread solution includes having a static public IP and configuring port forwarding on your network router so the service is reachable from the Internet. This however exposes your device to exploitation attempts from different actors. Either brute-force attacks or protocol-specific attacks leave you vulnerable to unauthorized access. With SecureMin.com all you need to do is download a VPN profile from the Networks section and deploy it on the computer you need to access to.
Once it connects to your virtual network, you can securely reach it on it’s internal IP or hostname from another device connected to the virtual network. You may need to configure your firewall to accept incoming connections from the VPN connection.
