TLS 1.2 guarantees security, while AnyDesk authenticates the connected subscriber cryptographically. The company's servers, shared worldwide, use Erlang/OTP, a middleware for building shared, highly available systems, based on the Erlang programming language developed by Ericsson. This means the image data reaches the screen after just a few processing steps.

The developers have integrated AnyDesk into the respective operating system at a low level and optimized it for multi-process architectures. At the same time, AnyDesk caches up to 100 screen content captures in a buffer thus it does not need to resend when need arises. The protocol transfers the screen content thanks to a special compression process with up to 60 images per second. The video codec for graphical user interfaces – specially developed by AnyDesk – compresses the data. They are assisted by a proprietary protocol that transmits the data with DeskRT. A Mac version and apps for Apple and Android tablets are planned.Īlthough user-friendliness is definitely a subjective question, the AnyDesk folks are well placed when it comes to the speed and quality of the transferred desktop. Native versions (for either 32- or 64-bit systems) for Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, RHEL, Mageia, openSUSE, and SLES, as well as a generic Linux version are on hand for Linux admins. Meanwhile, AnyDesk is also available in stable versions for Linux and BSD. The proprietary protocol transfers data in a flash.
