Free, Fast and Secure Linux Remote Desktop using X2GO

Image
I deployed Linux based X2GO remote desktop server for vendor access that works in low bandwidth, allows vendor to upload files but not to download file, and also only allows 1-way clipboard transfer from client to server. Such remote desktop capability is needed because some management tools are graphical applications, e.g. web based configuration tool. Regular VPN can provide the connectivity but giving VPN access directly to vendor server will allow them to download data easily. This situation violates data privacy regulations in many countries which requires company to prevent leaks of customer data.

Image
Note: Meta now provides built in mechanism for user's location request (likely since Q1 2023) in this API documention Whatsapp Business API is usually used by business organizations or companies to communicate with their customers. In some cases, the company’s application server, e.g. CRM application, might need to know customer’s current location. However, Whatsapp API doesn’t provide such information, except if customer shares his/her live location which most customers will not going to do. Meanwhile, most CRM applications actually only needs customer’s location in one-time-only manner. We know that Internet browser can capture user’s location with user consent.
