Sažetak
Companies of almost any size use in their IT departments some sort of a remote access solution to help their employees. The most prominent of such solutions is a free VNC tool. Still, this tool has some serious security drawbacks, apart from being of less than satisfactory efficiency. This prompted a need for change and one solution that was evaluated was TeamViewer. Part of the evaluation process was security assessment in order to define minimal security settings for safe and secure use of the application. This paper presents this security evaluations, tries to give a more general recipe for doing such reviews, and also discusses shortcoming of this review. One novelty of this security assessment is the use of CVSS scoring system to rate threats.
