Assistance may consist of collaboration or help.

a pass

In sports that are played as a team, an assist is a pass that a member of a team makes to another player and that allows the latter to score a score or so.

Remote assistance

In the field of computing, remote assistance is known as the service that one person provides to another to repair or optimize their computer without being physically present, but connected through a network. This is a technique that has been possible for many years, and is accessible to any PC or portable device user, thanks to the various free applications that allow you to control a computer remotely without major complications.

Although remote assistance is very common in the technical service field, anyone can take advantage of this tool to help a friend or family member with tasks that may be somewhat difficult for them, and not necessarily to eliminate a virus or resolve a problem. drivers problem. For example, if someone does not know how to install the latest version of the Flash player, thanks to remote assistance a user can manipulate their computer to do so from another geographic location.

Depending on the program used, remote assistance carries certain risks, which revolve around security . Some services require the permanent installation of an application on the host computer (the one that needs to be repaired, for example) and it is normal for this to run automatically every time the computer starts, unless the user expressly indicates otherwise. In this way, if the person performing the service is not trustworthy, they can take advantage of this circumstance to invade their client's privacy after having completed the work.

On the other hand, there are applications such as the popular TeamViewer , which give their users the possibility of running it temporarily; In other words, once remote assistance is completed, the program stops running and does not remain on the computer. Additionally, TeamViewer requires the entry of a password that is automatically generated each time it is started, so it cannot be used unless both users are present and give their approval.
