While remote access solutions have given us a unique way to access our networks and applications -- and provide a new level of worker productivity -- these solutions can inadvertently provide hackers a portal to your entire network if the security features are compromised.

The latest white paper, "Like Stealing Candy: Recent Security Threats Leave Passwords in the Open", from authors Eric Beehler and Eric Johnson is now posted at Redmond Magazine's Tech Library: www.redmondmag.com/techlibrary. There is also a companion web cast recorded that we finished last week. Get the latest on threats to remote access and solutions available to neutralize those threats.
