An RDP shop is a website where access to hacked computers is sold to cybercriminals.
The computers may be acquired via scanning the web for open Remote Desktop Protocol connections and brute-forcing passwords. High-value ransomware targets are sometimes available such as airports. Access to a compromised machine retails from $3 to $19 depending on automatically gathered system and network metrics using a standardised back door.
Many such shops exist on the dark web.
Ukrainian sites such as xDedic do not sell access to machines within the former Soviet nations.
