The security when you use hotels remote desktop?

I'm not sure where this investigation should go - maybe someone can correct me if needed.

We travel often.  I take my Windows 7 laptop with me and hotel networks allows to connect to my computer via desktop remotely, so that I can continue to do banking online, documentation, etc.  However, I am very concerned by the networks hotel being compromised, such that someone could be sniffing keyboard entries and looking for passwords and account information. I have considered two workaround solutions to hide what I do on my machine at home, but am not sure if they would actually work. One is to use the screen keyboard and the other is to have a copy of the text of the passwords I use available on my home computer and copy and paste passwords from secure documents / web pages, I want to access.

I guess that these two approaches would create only generic 'clicks' which don't contain any actual data which could be read through the network. Am I correct that?

Hello

Welcome to the Microsoft community.

There are a few additional steps you can take to limit access to the remote desktop.

1. you can specify that only certain users have access to this PC with remote desktop during installation.

2. you can also use another port to connect through.

a: you can find more information on these options here.

3. you can also see some good information in general on Remote Desktop here.

Regarding the overall security on your PC, you can configure the BitLocker Drive encryption.  BitLocker allows you to avoid any documents to the more secure passwords by encrypting the entire drive which is Windows and your data.  For more information on BitLocker and how to put in place, please check out the link here.

For more information about remote desktop, see Remote Desktop connection: frequently asked questions.

I hope this helps. If you need help with Windows, let us know and will be happy to help you.

  • Satellite A500-1GL: it is advisable to remove the battery when you use the network

    I know this is a silly question but its actually something I know not so thought I would ask.

    I almost always plug my laptop into the supply line (satellite a500 1gl)
    I was wondering have you actually keep the battery installed even when using the electrical network.
    Or is it really advisable to remove the battery when you use the network?
    I didn't know if the battery should always be in place.

  • How can I customize the toolbar when you use the browser of the attribute

    In CVI 2012, changes in the toolbar depending on the environment, for example, it is different to the source window and the user interface editor. The toolbar can be customized using the Options menu / toolbar...

    Unfortunately, when you use the browser of the attribute of the user interface editor, another toolbar is displayed, i.e. not the UI Editor toolbar... I would have assumed that the browser of the attribute belongs to the user interface editor, obviously this isn't... So, how can I customize the toolbar when you use the browser of the attribute?


  • Why Oracle ManagedDataAccess (4.121.1.0) throws a System.FormatException "first chance" exception to the debugger when you use OracleCommand.BindByName (on some machines, but not others)?

    Why Oracle ManagedDataAccess (4.121.1.0) throws a System.FormatException "first chance" exception to the debugger when you use OracleCommand.BindByName (on some machines, but not others)?

    This occurs when calling a ref cursor-returning packaged function stored with OracleCommand.BindByName set to true.

    When BindByName undefined, it works as expected.

    I've only been able to recreate this problem on a machine in my control. This issue has also reported to me by a customer.

    I tried to change the locale of the system of EN - UK EN-US, but I was not aware of any change in behavior.

    Similarly, I've tried explicitly overriding the default locale of the system with the OracleGlobalization parameters, and it also had no effect.

    Please see the example below.

    Thanks a lot to qualify again for me Alex.  I'll try upgrading to the latest version of the provider.

    The difference in behavior between the two hosts was found to be reduced to differences in configuration VS.

    Checking 'Just my code' prevents the first chance thrown in the debugger exception. As in fact, the exception is handled in the provider, it is enough for me.

  • Artifacts of the screen when you use the stamp tool

    Has anyone seen this?

    When I use the stamp tool I get all kinds of objects on the screen. Weird thing is when I do a screen recording of it, it's much less obvious but nonetheless still there. If I want to make a screenshot of it he disappears as soon as I touch the screen capture key (cmd-shift-3) or toch any key.

    So I had to take a picture with my phone:

    12735530_946731372101385_1193200465_n.jpg

    I tested VRAM / my different applications with dedicated GTX680 GPU / benchmarking utilities and results all seem well, games work fine, any application that uses my GPU works very well. Except of course Illustrator, which crashes all the time when you use GPU performance. And now Photoshop.

    A video of these objects can be seen here: http://www.studio57.nl/downloads/PS_Stamp_Sreen_Artifacts.mp4

    I'm on Mac OS X Photoshop CC 2015.1.2 10.11.3, and the last 346.03.05f02 of Web Driver nVidia.

    It seems that it is. I had the form of the word NVIDIA, they were able to reproduce to the issue and they are working on a fix.

    I'm so happy that my hardware is fine and that NVIDIA is still developing drivers for the Mac community!

  • No picture on the TV when you use S-Video on the Satellite A100-819

    Hello

    I'm trying to connect my laptop A100-819 to a TV using the S-video output on the laptop and the input S-Video on the TV, but I can't!
    I'm only a black screen that flashes white sometimes when I press Fn + F5 or when I try to clone the screen in the settings of my GeForce (nView).
    The laptop can't find the TV when you try to detect it in nView.

    One of my friends has already used the cable, so there is no problem.
    My TV is also defined for S-video.
    I installed the latest driver for my GeForce Go 7600 and my BIOS.

    Does anyone have a solution?
    What I have to change something in the BIOS?
    There is a person with the same specifications (or with a GeForce Go) who has already try the same thing? And did you?

    Greetings,
    Philippe

    Hello

    I tested the s-video output on this laptop and everything worked properly.
    I really put t know why it doesn't work on your laptop.

    Despite the fact that the s-video cable worked on computer s friend, you should test another because there are various cables s-video with different ends such as SCART connector or only s-video and two taken RCA for sound.

    In addition, I would recommend test this on laptop retrieved fresh.

    In addition, you could take the laptop to your friend and try it on another TV.

  • Is there a way to simplify the addition of data in the worksheet when you use a .csv instead of a .xlsx?

    I changed one of the newbies ActiveX toolkits provided by Joe_H to enter a number in a spreadsheet by using the following code 'save to existing Spreadsheet.vi.  However, since it was designed for a .xlsx, it uses an entry for the index of the sheet (that I set to 1 when you use my .csv file).  Currently, the program works, but I was wondering if there is a way to remove the index sheet part.  I tried to just delete, but I could not find how connections for refnums etc. should then work out.  Thanks for any advice, even if it's just to say that nothing major should be done.

    I don't think that there is a much easier way to do what you want then the code you provided.

  • Questions about privacy and security when you use Safari for Windows

    I have Itunes + Quick Time Player installed to download music and some time ago I had the opportunity to download Safari for Windows.  I used it a few times, just out of curiosity, and I noticed that it is much faster than IE7, so I plan to use it regularly, but before that, I have a few questions:

    -someone at - it tested (or uses) Safari for Windows, and what are your results?

    -What is save to use as Firefox or Opera, both recommended as alternative by our experts at the HijackThis forum?

    -the programs that I installed (Online Armor firewall, AVG 8.0 suite, MBAM with protection in real time enabled RogueRemover Pro with immune protection enabled, WinPatrol, SpywareBlaster) offer the same protection when you use Safari for browsing?

    Thanks a lot already for your answers, Advisor or thoughts on this issue.
