What’s Inside:

  • Why RDP is a top target — and how attackers break in
  • The 3 main RDP attack vectors: passwords, misconfigurations, and vulnerabilities
  • Real-world attack examples from 2023–2025
  • Step-by-step hardening tactics aligned with CIS Benchmarks
  • How to enforce least privilege, block clipboard redirection, and secure legacy systems
