12 Sep 2014 -- VPSBlocks today announced the release of version 1.0 of RDP Shield, remote desktop brute force protection software.
RDP Shield monitors remote desktop connections and in particular failed login attempts, and blocks an IP when an attack is suspected. It allows the user to configure the number of failures within a certain time to indicate an attack, as well as the amount of time to block an attacker.t
RDP Shield runs as a service and starts automatically when your server or computer restarts. A handy configuration tool sits in the system tray, where you can monitor the service, flush existing blocks and view logs. RDP Shield is a must have for any server or computer with a publically available remote desktop server.
With remote desktop brute force attacks on the rise, and many articles written on the subject in 2014, with no built in support provided by Microsoft, and only paid programs available to perform this relatively simple task. VPSBlocks started developing RDP Shield to install on their clients systems, and decided to release it as freeware to the wider community in the interests of internet security.
Shield is completely 100% free.
