In 2008, VMware licensed Teradici's PCoIP protocol and supports it in VMware Horizon. ClearCube remains the longest tenured manufacturer with the most experience implementing the protocol solving business problems in the Teradici partner universe. Widely accepted by Information Assurance Officers, PCoIP protocol encrypts pixel transfers with advanced security algorithms including AES-256 and NSA Suite B cryptography. Zero clients have no operating system to patch, manage or STIG, and no user-writable storage so they are very secure on the high- side networks.

IT managers are increasingly under pressure to manage system and data security, space constraints, and maintain an increasing number of software applications and hardware devices. With traditional PCs, this can be an onerous task. Thin clients and blades are smaller, quieter, require less maintenance than PCs, and are more energy-efficient since they require fewer components. However, blade clients still require their own operating system and CPU, and without special configurations, thin clients cannot perform technical work such as scientific research, engineering development, creative graphic arts, and financial industry analysis and trading. Teradici's solution is designed to improve PC asset management by centralizing the operating system, applications and PC components, providing enhanced security, 3 power savings and simplified maintenance, while maintaining the power and user 3 0 0 experience of a traditional desktop PC. 9 6 3 . 6 Teradici is taking a different approach to computer deployment and management, 1 4 TM .

  • Understanding Desktop Virtualization
    White Paper Understanding Desktop Intel® Core™ vPro™ Processors Emerging Compute Models Virtualization Driven by ever-increasing pressure on a multitude of issues – including cost control, manageability, security, regulatory compliance, and business continuity – some IT managers are considering desktop virtualization models as an alternative to traditional distributed software deployment. Thanks to recent advances in technology, IT has a range of centrally managed models from which to choose. From terminal services to VHD, blade PCs through application and OS streaming, each model has its advantages and trade-offs. Rarely is a single model adequate to meet the needs of all users and all applications. Instead, the needs of each group of users, as well as IT requirements and existing infrastructure, must be carefully considered. In most cases, an enterprise solution will likely involve a combination of models. Although thin terminals may be suitable hardware for certain purely server-based models, intelligent PC platforms based on technology such as the Intel® Core™ vPro™ processor family for desktops and laptops offer highly manageable and secure platforms on which to deploy a wide range of solutions. This white paper describes the variety of desktop virtualization models available, how each works, and the advantages and limitations of each model for key vectors such as security, manageability, and power consumption. Also identified are the major providers of software solutions and the end-point devices to deploy each model. White Paper

  • Desktop Computer Virtualization for Improvement Security, Power Consumption and Cost by SBC(Server Based Computer)
    International Journal of Security and Its Applications Vol. 9, No. 5 (2015), pp. 141-152 http://dx.doi.org/10.14257/ijsia.2015.9.5.15 Desktop Computer Virtualization for Improvement Security, Power Consumption and Cost by SBC(Server Based Computer) Lee Yong Hui1, Kim Hwan Seok2 and Kim Baek Ki3 1 Shinsung University, Chief of Information Service Center, DaehackRo1 Jungmimyun, DanginCity, ChungNam, Korea 343-861, [email protected] 2Gangneung-Wonju National University, Dept. Information and Telecommunication Engineering, Korea 220-711, [email protected] 3Gangneung-Wonju National University, Dept. Information and Telecommunication Engineering, Korea 220-711, [email protected] Abstract It is possible for virtualization of desktop to dramatically reduce maintenance costs and improve the security using various virtualization techniques rather than previous desktop environments. Also, with blocking beforehand the information leakage caused by data centralization, it is easy to manage the information security. This desktop virtualization provides creation and duplication of data and standardized desktop environments using easy and fast virtualization works. So, it is possible to improve efficiency, stability, and fusibility of virtualization. In this paper, with the desktop virtualization, the power saving effects are obtained from 65,750(kW) to 7,300(kW) , which is from 480(w) to 50 (w) for using one desktop for 8 hours per a day. In addition, the 62 desktops and 62 monitors are combined to one operational server with 62 thin clients. As a result of this, the security is improved greatly by data centralization, which the user can access the main server as a thin client with given space.
