What would you like to secure? RDP is encrypted with 128 bit by default (you
can set it higher or lover).

Personally if I use RDP to access remote server over internet I use regular
password. Once I am on server I use RDP to connect to internal servers using
e.g. administrator password...

Once user is on server it is as if he would be on server itself so it is up
to administrator to remove any access tools using group or local policy...

I hope this helps you out,

Mike
