Remote desktop connection to a Mac device can be established via the following options:
- Virtual Network Computing (VNC): VNC is an inbuilt screen sharing feature present in all platforms, that uses RFB (Remote Frame Buffer Protocol) to remotely control another computer. It transmits the keyboard and mouse inputs from the VNC server to the VNC client, and sends the resulting graphical-screen updates back to the client. While it is possible to connect to Mac devices using VNC, the process is tedious and there are a veriety of security concerns, hence making it unsuitable for IT administrators.
