Remote access tools, such as VPN’s, RDP, VNC, Citrix, and others, have always been an inviting target for attackers. Even 2003’s Matrix Reloaded used an exploit against an old version of Secure Shell (SSH) as a plot device in a rare cinematic example of a real-world cyber-security threat. The recent shift to a remote workforce in response to a global pandemic has made remote access an even more inviting target for threat actors of all stripes.
