- So far “there is no evidence to suggest that the product environment or customer data is affected,” the company says on its website.
- TeamViewer’s internal IT environment is completely independent from its product environment, the firm adds.
[Edit typo.]
RDP for Windows comes built in. VNC has a really fast install on Linux. There’s no reason not to use them and loan your remote sessions to a third party company.

Here we go again…
Since they classed my personal account as professional I hope Team Viewer never recovers.
Fuck Russia and their welcoming of hackers, constantly hacking and ransoming shit.
Over and over, fucking scum: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-06-28/cdk-hackers-have-ties-to-notorious-russia-based-cyber-gang?srnd=technology-vp
from companies to city infrastructure to fucking hospitals: https://www.beckershospitalreview.com/cybersecurity/us-hospitals-paid-100m-to-russian-ransomware-hackers.html

Russia continues to offer safe harbor for cybercriminals where groups such as LockBit are free to launch ransomware attacks against the United States, its allies, and partners. These ransomware attacks have targeted critical infrastructure, including hospitals, schools, and financial institutions.
Any professional still using team viewer deserves this. I just feel sorry for all the novices that get caught up in this.
