AnyDesk

AnyDesk at a glance

AnyDesk is a widely used remote-access and support tool. AnyDesk ships frequent client updates; the client can update itself, and managed environments push the packages through software distribution.

For admins the priorities are prompt updates and tight access control: as remote-access software with system-level reach, it is a high-value target, so keep clients current and lock down access (unattended-access passwords, allowlists, the security settings that restrict who may connect). Alongside the desktop client, older versions on personal or rarely-used devices are the classic weak spot — enforce a minimum version. Review connection permissions and prefer least-privilege, audited access. Source it from the official site, and subscribe to AnyDesk security notices.
