DALLAS, TX--(NewMediaWire - Sep 26, 2016) - Thinspace Technology
Inc. (OTC PINK: THNS) ("Thinspace or the "Company"), a global
provider of reliable, scalable and affordable application delivery,
virtualization, and cloud client technology to public and private
sector companies and organizations of all sizes, today announced it
has fully integrated Microsoft RD Gateway to enable customers
secure, controlled access to their internal resources and
systems.
In its new release of VSuite TSConsole Version 3.1.0, Thinspace
continues its efforts to increase control, flexibility and ease of
management by enabling administrators to configure, monitor and
manage, Microsoft Remote Desktop Gateway (RD Gateway) service
directly from TSConsole, leveraging the full power and benefit of
fully integrated RD Gateway.
The TSConsole allows administrators to configure authorization
policies to define conditions for remote users to connect to
internal network resources. For example, admins can specify:
Who can connect to internal network resources (i.e., the user
groups who can connect).
- What network resources (computer groups) users can connect
to.
Whether client computers must be members of Active Directory
security groups.
Whether device redirection is allowed.
Whether clients need to use smart card authentication,
password authentication, or both methods.
RD Gateway provides many benefits, including:
- RD Gateway enables remote users to connect to internal
network resources over the Internet, by using an encrypted
connection, without needing to configure virtual private
network (VPN) connections.
RD Gateway provides a comprehensive security configuration
model that enables admins to control access to specific
internal network resources. RD Gateway provides
a point-to-point RDP connection, rather than allowing remote
users access to entire internal network resources.
RD Gateway enables most remote users to connect to internal
network resources that are hosted behind firewalls in private
networks and across network address translators (NATs). With
RD Gateway, additional configuration is not needed for the RD
Gateway server or clients for this scenario.
Prior to this release of Windows Server, security measures
prevented remote users from connecting to internal network
resources across firewalls and NATs. This is because the port
used for RDP connections (port 3389), is typically blocked for
network security purposes. RD Gateway transmits RDP traffic to
port 443 instead, by using an HTTP Secure
Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) tunnel.
Because most corporations open port 443 to enable Internet
connectivity, RD Gateway takes advantage of this network
design to provide remote access connectivity across multiple
firewalls.

"As enterprise mobility is today's work requirement, customers
need secure, controlled access to internal server-side resources in
an easy manner from anywhere -- office, home, mobile," stated
Thinspace CEO Chris Bautista. "The integration of Microsoft RD
Gateway not only achieves this, but also does this with one of the
most trusted and proven technology providers."
