To enable Chrome Remote Desktop for local area network or VPN users only, disable firewall traversal by setting the policy on Windows® Mac® and Linux® machines.

To disable firewall traversal:

• Windows: Set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Google\Chrome\RemoteAccessHostFirewallTraversal to 0.
• Mac: Set RemoteAccessHostFirewallTraversal to NO in ~/Library/Preferences/com.google.Chrome.plist.
• Linux: Set  RemoteAccessHostFirewallTraversal to FALSE in /etc/opt/chrome/policies/managed/RemoteAccessHostFirewallTraversal.json.

Hello @HaniAbuelkhair ,

> You need to identify the domains or URLs used by Chrome Remote Desktop service.

> Navigate to "Security Profiles" and create a new "Web Filter" profile.
>  Specify the categories or URLs related to Chrome Remote Desktop that you want to block. For example, you can add domains like remotedesktop.google.com or other related URLs.
> Once the web filtering profile is set up, apply it to the relevant firewall policy that governs internet access for users in your office network.
> Monitor it.

Please be informed web filtering alone might not completely prevent access to remote desktop solutions, as users can potentially use other methods or VPNs to bypass restrictions.

Thanks
