And by the late 1990s, VNC technology was one of the most important products of this laboratory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was also a beginning because, as the lab closed, our founders and the technology&#8217;s creators immediately started RealVNC. The purpose was to create a commercial company, albeit with a particular purpose. Namely, to build a new closed-source and secure VNC from the ground up for customers such as Intel. For companies for which technology plays a crucial role.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let&#8217;s find out more about the early days of the company from Tristan Richardson &#8211; the VNC protocol&#8217;s inventor and one of the founders of RealVNC, and who still works for the company to this day:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt was a sad day when the lab closed in 2002, but out of the ashes rose RealVNC Ltd, with the five founders determined that the end of the lab would not be the end of VNC<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.&nbsp; Working out of spare bedrooms or wherever we could find a desk with an internet-connected computer we continued to develop the software and support the<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-style: normal;\"> <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">VNC community.&nbsp; Gradually the company grew from there, getting our first office, making the product secure, and adding extra features to support the needs of our growing customer base.&nbsp; Now, 20 years later, huge progress has been achieved, and VNC Connect makes remote access easy for anyone to set up and use.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2><b>Evolution into today&#8217;s RealVNC<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RealVNC&#8217;s open-source counterparts continued to fork its founders&#8217; work from years earlier. However, our focus was on delivering a remote access solution that our engineering team built with excellence, reliability, and robust security to protect users from external threats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2004 marked the launch of Windows, Mac, and Linux versions. In 2009, VNC Server was getting embedded into the Intel vPro firmware.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we continued to develop our product over many years, recognition was not far behind. An example was the Royal Academy of Engineering&#8217;s MacRobert Award in 2013. We started to understand the freedom our product enabled organizations to experience, empowering them to create remote solutions and resolve problems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>When asked about our growth, RealVNC CEO Adam Greenwood-Byrne says:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>It&#8217;s because we\u2019re a big part of many people\u2019s missions. Customers have told us that rocket launches into space couldn\u2019t happen without us, that we significantly helped medical teams during the COVID pandemic, and that we\u2019ve helped partially-sighted children thrive and feel included in everyday school lessons. We\u2019re even helping teams track polar bears in the Arctic!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Things changed further in 2016 when we launched our flagship product, VNC Connect. This has also marked RealVNC&#8217;s move away from a traditional perpetual software license. With our ground-breaking proprietary cloud technology, a SaaS model made much more sense.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since then, the product has become much easier to use. We pride ourselves that VNC Connect requires little to no training while keeping your organization&#8217;s data secure with strong security settings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">VNC Connect has seen many significant improvements\u2014 with the addition of<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.realvnc.com\/en\/connect\/instant-support\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instant Support<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for helpdesks (2017), providing high-speed streaming, or allowing Remote HD audio (2019).

As a result, we are on a solid growth trajectory and working on ways in which we can help your organization deliver a secure remote access strategy.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Putting security first<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The world is evolving rapidly, and so is the need for <\/span><b>secure<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> remote access.

The result was taking further steps to strengthen any identified vulnerabilities and that our service <\/span><b><i>&#8220;in scope is now perceivable as strong and stable regarding security posture.&#8221;<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<h2><b>The future of RealVNC<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2022 onwards continues to concentrate on security initiatives, which we&#8217;ll talk about throughout the year.
