Safety Precautions for Enabling Remote Desktop
• NVR should never be used directly over the Internet. Ensure that you always
establish a connection with VPN first and then access NVR through the VPN.
• Ensure that NVR with Remote Desktop Enabled must have Anti virus software
installed and maintained up to date. See Setting Up Antivirus Software for MAXPRO
NVRs to configure the Anti virus software.
• Ensure that all the security patches are up to date in your PC.
WARNING! Running remote desktop services or Terminal Server makes
your system vulnerable to network attacks from malicious
entities. This is especially true if your NVR is made accessible
over the Internet. Please understand the risks involved with this
and enable it only if absolutely necessary.
