Hi,
We are using AVG Admin console to manage AVG clients in the office, we have a few remote employees who are working form home most of the time, how good(bad) would be the idea to exposure password protected AVG Admin Console to the WAN to connect these clients to it?
Did anyone tried that?

Hi Roman,

I believe that this is something that has been done. As long as the firewall is able to protect against unwanted access to the server there shouldn't be any security risk. The reliability of the connection, though, would be of concern to me. AVG cloudcare which communicated with a cloud server would be a much more attractive solution in this scenario: http://www.avg.com/content/cloudcare/gb-en/for-resellers.html
