Posted on November 13, 2019

I have an app thats so much easier to use in gui mode, but wondering if using vnc even though the firewall if it only allows connections from my office, is it any less in secure?

Thanks…

Hello, @robmorin

If you have configured your firewall to accept connections only from your office IP address everything should be good from security perspective. You can also change the port on which you can connect and use a custom one in order to make the setup unique.

Let me know if you have any questions or if I’ve not followed your query correctly.
