Access remote server is a type of server dedicated to non-Local Area Network users who require remote access to use it. Access remote server allows users to access files and print services from the Local Area Network even from a remote location. Thus, users who dial an office Local Area Network from home using a modem will be dialing into an access remote server. User authentication is required to access shared files and printer stores in an office Local Area Network from a remote location.

Professionals assigned on field particularly benefit from the services of access remote server in generating reports or supporting documents from the office's Local Area Network. It makes their field work easier and connected to main office data that makes it easier for monitoring and supervision.

Analysis of data will not be cumbersome anymore particularly for data on transit from one office to another. Access remote server allows for portable and accessible analysis of files. Gone are the days where professionals put their works in jeopardy for lost computer data.

The accessibility of data makes file sharing across field offices or units easy and immediate. A supervisor can easily monitor the works of field offices assigned to him by just a click into the access remote server.

The easier connectivity of access remote server might pose higher risk of fraud particularly for data salient to the operation of organizations. Fraudulent individuals can tamper into the authentication process of the access remote server leading to the detriment of the general operation of companies.

Implement higher level of security authentication to counteract the risk of fraud. Authorized personnel assigned for every level of authentication should take an oath of confidentiality in handling authentication passwords. Breach of such oaths will be subject to appropriate punishment.

Innovations in technology gives rise to better file sharing and accessible supervision as offered by access server. However, implement security measures to mitigate risk in internal control.
