How to securely use Remote Desktop Connection to connect from my work computer to my home PC?
My home computer is connected to a wireless router and then to a modem. I tried to connect to my home computer from my work PC [with RDC] by punching in the IP address of my home computer, and that didn't work. The home computer didn't respond. I read that I need to set up port forwarding but that opens up to a high probability of getting hacked. What's the best way to securely use Remote Desktop Connection in this scenario to connect to my home computer? Thank you!
