Desktop Virtualization Delivers Built-in Security

vdi-cloud-manA Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) allows your users to access their desktop from any Internet-connected device, including PCs, Macs, tablets and smartphones. Regardless of the device used, the apps are continually refreshed and updated, allowing for a consistent, reliable user experience. There are also security-related advantages to a virtualized environment…

Immediate De-Provisioning – The ability to instantly de-provision access to information resources for any worker, regardless of location, is vital when more third-party partners, vendors and workers are involved. This capability delivers considerable protection against bad actors.

Central Control – IT administrators can set permissions, preventing files carrying malware from residing on any server. Operating system and application upgrades and patches are easier and more reliable too, significantly reducing vulnerabilities.

Data Locality and Protection– Data that was once stored on devices can now be saved, encrypted and synchronized in a cloud-based data center or server, making it easier to secure versus managing numerous end-user devices with limited physical controls.

Compliance – Desktop virtualization protects information resources and helps to ensure industry and regulatory compliance. It addresses a broad range of threats such as the theft of intellectual property, data loss or tampering, the exposure of client or customer data and the violation of client confidentiality.
