  • 10.0.5

RdpGuard 10.0.5, published by Netsdk Software FZE, is a lightweight host-based intrusion prevention system designed to protect Windows servers against brute-force attacks on Remote Desktop Protocol, SMTP, FTP, IMAP, POP3, MySQL, MS-SQL, and other exposed network services. Running as a background service, the application continuously monitors incoming authentication requests and automatically blocks source IP addresses after a configurable number of failed login attempts, dynamically updating the Windows Firewall or switching to a proprietary packet-filter driver for earlier OS editions. System administrators typically deploy it on internet-facing Terminal Servers, RDS gateways, mail hubs, and database hosts where continuous logon probing would otherwise lock legitimate accounts or consume bandwidth. Because the engine operates independently of the services it protects, it can be rolled out without modifying existing software configurations, making it suitable for both single-server small-business environments and multi-site enterprise farms that feed logs to a central dashboard. The 10.0.5 release refines IPv6 handling, improves performance under heavy connection loads, and retains the per-rule whitelisting, e-mail alerts, and detailed CSV export that have characterized the single-version product line since its inception. The utility sits in the Networking / Firewall subcategory of security software and is compatible with every desktop or server edition of Windows from Vista and Server 2008 onward. RdpGuard is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version, and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
