remote access
Connecting from afar
Remote access is the ability to connect to a computer, network, or system from a distant location.
IT staff use remote access to troubleshoot problems without being on-site.
The term covers various technologies—VPNs, remote desktop software, SSH connections—that let users control machines or retrieve data as if they were physically present: I have remote access to my work computer from home.
