Scantide Guard and the RDP blocking use case

RDP-Focused Protection with a Broader Windows and Linux Model

If you are evaluating tools to stop repeated RDP and server authentication attacks, Scantide Guard covers the RDP use case while extending the same operational model to Linux SSH, web servers, SQL Server, Exchange and custom application logs.

Capabilities

What this Guard workflow covers

Designed around observable server evidence

Scantide Guard does not need to attack, exploit or brute-force a service to decide that repeated hostile activity deserves action. Collectors observe evidence already generated by the server, normalize it into a common event model, then apply explicit thresholds, allowlists, exceptions and enforcement policy.

The result is intended to be understandable by an administrator: which source IP was seen, which collector reported it, which rule or threshold was reached, what action Guard took, and when a temporary block is due to expire.

Standalone when you need it. Centralized when you grow.

A single Guard can protect its own server with local policy and local firewall enforcement. Organizations with multiple systems can add Scantide Guard Datacenter for shared policy, fleet visibility, licensing and coordinated reputation services.

Frequently asked questions

Is this an official RdpGuard comparison?

No. This page explains Scantide Guard capabilities for administrators evaluating the same category of server brute-force protection. Product capabilities and licensing should be checked with each vendor.

Does Guard only protect RDP?

No. RDP is one collector/use case among Windows, Linux, web and custom-monitor sources.

Can Guard centrally manage multiple servers?

Yes. Guard Datacenter is intended to provide central policy and operational visibility across enrolled systems.
