Virtual Desktop Virtualization

Since VDI operates faster than traditional networks, all users, whether local or remote, experience superior performance for file and data retrieval. There is never a risk of a laptop or tablet losing data — it’s always accessible. Sales and other employees that work outside the office but need access to proprietary data behind the network firewall will find using a virtual desktop particularly useful as they can log in and show clients presentations hosted from the VDI or get immediate responses to questions from clients or potential clients.

There is never a lag in computer performance with desktop virtualization because of the redundancies built in for data storage, power supplies and networking features that all connected users can utilize.  

VDI setups provide extra layers of security because data is virtualized and not stored on the hardware itself. Your employees won’t be carrying around proprietary data and there is less risk if their laptops or workstations are lost or stolen. Plus, access to a VDI is normally encrypted, adding another layer of protection. 

All remote sessions are protected by security features including TLS and 256-bit AES encryption, device authentication, two-step verification, and multiple 2nd-level password options. All connections, file transfers, and management events are logged. Learn more about SOC 2, GDPR, and HIPAA standards compliance.

Virtual desktop infrastructure utilizes virtualization software to host an operating system on a central server in the network data center rather than an individual computer. This virtual desktop can be accessed by more than one user on the network as if it were hosted locally on their own computer. Virtual desktops allow for greater productivity and collaboration, as all network devices with the same security settings have access to the same data and software.
