Should organizations move away from VPNs toward more targeted, resource-level remote access controls?
Leostream has officially released Leostream Cloud, a new service designed to facilitate remote access to various computing systems. The service aims to secure connections by utilizing identity-based authentication and policy-driven controls.
Why it matters
By allowing users to connect to systems without direct access to the wider corporate network, the service significantly reduces the attack surface for remote work environments. This approach helps maintain organizational security while supporting diverse connectivity protocols.
Leostream Cloud integrates support for RDP, VNC, SSH, HTML5, Amazon DCV, Jump Desktop, and Sunshine/Moonlight. It employs an agent-based model utilizing outbound connectivity to prevent direct exposure of sensitive internal services.
