The correct answer is C: Third-party screen sharing. Third-party screen sharing tools work over standard internet connections without requiring VPN or corporate network membership, making them the most practical choice for a remote user in a shared public space.

Question

A technician is helping a remote user who has a Windows issue. The user is working from a shared office space and is not on the corporate network. Which of the following remote access methods is MOST likely to be successful in this case?

Options

  • ATelnet
  • BRemote desktop
  • CThird-party screen sharing
  • DSecure shell

Explanation

Third-party screen sharing tools work over standard internet connections without requiring VPN or corporate network membership, making them the most practical choice for a remote user in a shared public space.

Common mistakes.

  • A. Telnet transmits all data including credentials in plaintext, is typically disabled on modern systems, and lacks the graphical interface needed for Windows desktop support.
  • B. Remote Desktop (RDP) requires either direct network access or a VPN tunnel to reach the corporate network, which is unavailable to a user working from a public shared office space.
  • D. SSH provides encrypted command-line access and is not suited for graphical Windows desktop support; it also requires specific port access and pre-configured credentials on the target system.
