An access control device provides a secure access control mechanism for a system being remotely accessed. An embodiment of the access control device includes a front-end firewall to provide a first network port to connect a computer to remotely access the system; a bastion host connected with the front-end firewall; and a back-end firewall, connected with the bastion host, to provide a second network port to connect the system. The back-end firewall determines remotely accessible resources in the system and determines resources remotely accessible by the computer, among the remotely accessible resources in the system, according to remote access control policies. The bastion host provides the computer with information provided by the back-end firewall about the resources remotely accessible by the computer through the first network port of the front-end firewall, to permit the resources to be remotely accessible by the computer. Advantages may include security, simplicity and plug-and-play.
