Secure remote access on public workstations, with TeamViewer Portable

TeamViewer Portable grants remote access without installation on the computer

Uhingen, Germany, October 30th 2008 – TeamViewer GmbH, a leading provider of solutions for online communication and collaboration, offers TeamViewer Portable, a USB option for professionals accessing confidential information from public computers.

Recognised as a leader in remote software, TeamViewer solutions work via the Internet to securely connect any two computers in the world. TeamViewer Portable enables users with secure remote access to a distant computer, when working at a public workstation.

When using TeamViewer Portable, no application or software is installed and no Windows registries are written on the workstation being used; all information remains secure on the stick. Subsequent users of the same workstation are not able to access license keys or passwords entered by the previous user.

As part of the Premium license, TeamViewer Portable is easily downloaded from the Internet onto either a USB or U3 stick. Following this, the complete software is available on the stick and can be launched, without installation or configuration, on any computer. As soon as the stick is inserted users are equipped to remotely access their computer from anywhere in the world.

This easily executable solution facilitates professional mobility, providing users with secure means of accessing information from any location. Rather than traveling with their laptop, users may choose to remotely access their personal computers on public workstations, through TeamViewer Portable.

“With TeamViewer Portable, professionals are able to use public computers in confidence,” begins Dr. Tilo Rossmanith, Founder and Director of TeamViewer. “While on location with one client, consultants are able to use a public workstation and remotely access a second computer, without opening the door to a security breech. This combination of mobility and security is an attractive option when working on the go,” finishes Rossmanith.

TeamViewer software features cross-platform support, and is fully operational on both Windows and Mac systems. Like all TeamViewer solutions, TeamViewer Portable maintains the highest security standards. TeamViewer works behind firewalls, enabling information sharing without compromising computer security.

Availability

TeamViewer can be downloaded directly from the company Web site.

TeamViewer Portable is available through the Premium license, which includes unlimited installations.
