I am setting up a W2k terminal server box for remote access. There ~ 10 users now. A VPN is too cumbersome for some of the people who travel frequently.

RDP seems to be a fairly secure protocol. I am concerned about possible exploits against port 3389 of the TS box if it is open all of the time.

I am thinking about firewall authentication and I can't see a native method to encrypt the challenge/response.

Is there any method to do that using the velociraptor or is there something I could place before the TS for additional security?
