RDP shop
An RDP shop is a website where access to hacked computers is sold to cybercriminals.
The computers may be acquired via scanning the web for open Remote Desktop Protocol connections and brute-forcing passwords.[1] High-value ransomware targets are sometimes available such as airports.[2] Access to a compromised machine retails from $3 to $19 depending on automatically gathered system and network metrics using a standardised back door.[3][4]
Russian sites such as xDedic[3] do not sell access to machines within the former Soviet nations.[5]
Commercial RDP Services
[edit]In addition to illegal RDP shops, legitimate services offer remote desktop access for various purposes such as business operations, remote work, and server management. Some of these services include:
- A service that provides multiple RDP options such as buy RDP, USA RDP, and cheap RDP. These services cater to users needing secure and affordable remote access solutions.
