What Is Remote Access?

May 13, 2022

Remote access refers to the ability to access a physically distant computer over the internet from another device from any location. With the remote access software, authorized users gain access to all files and programs the same way as if sitting in front of the remote computer.

The importance of remote access increased when employees started working from home due to the coronavirus outbreak. This capability enables organizations to have employees all over the world, as well as manage those machines without physical presence.
