The security is probably better if you enable HTTPS than RDP?

When I use RDP it is always over SSH (port tunnel)



Yes. And many corporate and government networks deny list all traffic on ports other than 80/443, so RDP just is not an option in many cases. VDI over HTTPS also means users don't need a separately installed RDP client and can just access the VDI via their browser.


Can easily enable reverse SSH at home through 443 and 80. Log in with RDP just to enable the reverse-SSH and use that for RDP.

The benefit is that you can access other things than RDP with this solution.


That’s why I said via VPN, but yes of course it’s more secure if you add another layer - I wouldn’t say more secure than SSH or VPN.
