This update improves two of the core features that protect Remote Access Servers against unauthorized access.

RDS-Knight provides a 360-degrees security protection for RDS servers. RDS-Knight is 'The Must-Have' security tool for every RDS Administrator. Today, RDS-Tools announces the general availability of the new 4.2 release of this amazing product.

RDS-knight is the simple and unique tool which combines six strong measures to keep remote connections protected while reducing RDP security risks.
It is 'The Must-Have' security tool for every RDS Administrator.

In a matter of minutes, this powerful software will: prevent foreign malicious people from opening a session, avoid brute force attacks on the serve, detect ransomware attacks and stop data encryption at an early stage, restrict access by device and by time, provide security for the remote users environment.

RDS-Knight 4.2 enhances two of the core features that restrict remote access to time and location. The Homeland Protection prevents undesirable connections from foreign countries. It strictly restricts access to RDS servers based on the geographical location: only users with IPs coming from an area figuring in the 'white list&' are able to connect. Version 4.2 strengthen this feature for a more aggressive filtering and a higher efficiency. This improvement leads to a higher number of notifications on the Security Event log. However, it is also far less CPU-intensive!

The Working Hours Restrictions closes the access to the server out of configured working times. In a snap, Administrators can specify the time slot when users are allowed to open sessions. With RDS-Knight 4.2, they can also enforce the automatic logoff from any session still opened when authorized time comes to an end. 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. This change constitutes a significant step toward an even more reliable and future-proof&#38#160RDS-Knight.

RDS-Tools Development Team is constantly investing to keep RDS-Knight at the top of its game, anticipate its customers&#38#8217 needs and exceed their expectations. Remote Desktop user feedback is at the center of RDS-Tools' strategy as it is the key to maintain the highest level of satisfaction. The RDS-Knight Ultimate Protection Version 4 was a major release. It came with newly redesigned User Interface and great new features. Enjoy improved user experience and easier management!

RDS-Knight Version 4 is not just about a new look. New features have been added and there are more on the way!
