Remote access

Secure remote work for companies

Orderly remote access: who connects, from where, to which applications and under what control. Without opening ports or handing out unrecorded access.

The starting point

Many remote access setups were built in a hurry and simply stayed. The result is usually a mix of VPNs, remote desktops exposed to the internet and personal remote-control tools that nobody has inventoried.

What we usually find

  • Remote desktop published directly to the internet.
  • Shared passwords with no second factor.
  • Personal devices accessing company data.
  • No traceability of who connects and when.

Which companies it fits

Companies with mobile staff, branches or roles that work from home part of the week.

We audit how your team connects today and propose controlled, documented remote access.

What the solution includes

  • Corporate access

    VPN or published desktop depending on the case, with rules per user group.

  • Two-factor authentication

    Mandatory second factor on exposed access and privileged accounts.

  • Device control

    Endpoint antivirus, encryption and update status checked on connecting devices.

  • Logging and review

    Access monitoring and periodic review of active users.

How it is deployed

  1. 1Inventory of existing remote access, including unofficial tools.
  2. 2Definition of profiles and what each one actually needs.
  3. 3Rollout of corporate access and two-factor authentication.
  4. 4Closure of legacy access and unnecessary ports.
  5. 5Periodic review of joiners, leavers and permissions.

Real-world scenarios

Sales staff connecting from hotels and client sites

The sales team connects from networks the company does not control. Access is handled with named identities, multi-factor authentication and an encrypted channel into internal systems, rather than a shared VPN credential. That way you know who connected, from where and to what, and a single account can be revoked without affecting anyone else.

Split weeks between office and home

When the same person works some days in the office and others at home, the experience has to be identical, otherwise copies of files start appearing on personal machines. Application access is unified, storage is centralised and the same endpoint protection applies wherever the device happens to be.

What is deployed and what stays with the company

Seintec deploys and operates remote access, multi-factor authentication, managed endpoint protection, segmentation of what each profile can reach and access logging, and reviews the resulting alerts on a regular basis. The internal policy — who may work remotely, on which devices and what information may leave the company — is set by management, because it is a business decision rather than a technical one. Seintec advises, documents what has been deployed and translates the approved policy into concrete configuration.

What is at stake if it is left unaddressed

  • Reused credentials

    The same password across several services is the most exploited weakness. Multi-factor authentication immediately reduces the impact of a leaked credential.

  • Unmanaged personal devices

    A home laptop with no managed antivirus and no updates becomes the weak point of an otherwise well-protected network.

  • No access logging

    Without traceability you cannot investigate an incident or evidence what happened, which is a requirement in sectors with data protection obligations.

Frequently asked questions

Can we work remotely with an installed ERP?
Yes, usually by publishing the desktop where the application runs instead of exposing the database.
Is two-factor authentication mandatory?
There is no generic legal obligation, but it is the single measure that most reduces the risk of stolen-credential access, and we always recommend it for exposed access.
Can we use personal devices?
It is possible with a published desktop, since data never lands on the device. Even so, it is worth stating in writing what is allowed.
How long does deployment take?
It depends on user count and applications. It is planned in phases so nobody is left unable to work.
Is a VPN enough on its own?
A VPN encrypts traffic, but by itself it does not verify who is connecting or what state the device is in. Sensible remote access combines named identity, multi-factor authentication, managed endpoint protection and control over what each profile can reach inside the network. The VPN is one component, not the whole answer.
How is information protected if a laptop is lost?
Through disk encryption, a password-protected session with multi-factor authentication, and the ability to disable the account immediately. Where the working model is a virtual desktop, the information never resides on the device, so losing it is a hardware problem rather than a data breach.
Does it slow down day-to-day work?
Multi-factor authentication adds a few seconds at sign-in and can be configured not to repeat on trusted devices for a set period. The remaining measures are transparent to users. The usual resistance disappears when the rollout comes with a short explanation and a support channel during the first days.
Can it be applied to part of the workforce only?
Yes. It usually starts with the most exposed profiles: management, finance and anyone handling sensitive data. The measures are extended to everyone else afterwards, keeping a common configuration so the company does not end up maintaining and auditing several different access models.
