Whether it's banking and finance, retail, healthcare, government, military, transportation, education, utilities, real estate, or anything else, all modern industries  can really benefit from  virtual desktop environments and related endpoints like Thin and Zero Client devices

 

Virtual Desktop Endpoints: Requirements for the Education Sector 

 

Just as business professionals need to focus on business, teachers in the education world  need to focus on teaching, not spending time solving computer problems. Similarly, students must be able to focus on learning. Schools and universities are moving to virtual desktop infrastructures that require a large number of high-quality endpoints  for their demanding teaching and student environments. VDI and physical endpoints eliminate workstation management, troubleshooting and upgrades. The key thing to remember here is that while alternative virtual desktops seem like on-the-go, cheap and fast solutions, nothing can offer schools a business experience at a value-class price like Thin or Zero Clients. 

 

Virtual Desktop Endpoints: Banking/Financial Industry Requirements 

Security, protection, centralization 

 

Financial and banking institutions are often the target of monetized data breaches. Most financial organizations in this industry are aware of the risks they face and the potential devastation a single data breach can cause. One way to avoid this is to centralize data. VDI makes it much more efficient to protect the  data on the central server in your data center. The management software utility provides centralized configuration, maintenance and management of endpoints such as Thin or Zero Client, which in turn improves security and provides effective protection against cyber threats and viruses. Since financial data is stored on a central server, proprietary and sensitive organizational data is also protected from all  threats.  

Virtual Desktop Endpoints: Healthcare Services 

Speed, accessibility, ease of use 

 

In health care, professionals should care about patients, not annoying technical problems. The industry has benefited from VDI and Thin and Zero Client programs with certifications like Imprivata® OneSign Single-Sign-On (SSO) that make things like virtual desktops easy. Healthcare professionals can quickly and very securely access  clinical and administrative applications, simplifying workflow by eliminating the need to repeatedly log in to multiple endpoints. Faster and easier access to patient data means a focus on  more efficient care. More and more healthcare organizations want a flexible, reliable and manageable solution for IT managers, where they do not have a local operating system, but a secure virtual desktop channel. 

Virtual Desktop Endpoints: Government/Public Sector Industry Requirements 

Strength, endurance, efficiency 

The government sector also requires a high level of information security and resilience of IT infrastructure and equipment. The VDI  Thin and Zero Client appliance environment is designed to meet the needs of federal, state and local agencies in the field. Government services, such as defense and legal affairs in this sector, often require both custom rack-mounted workstations and advanced security endpoints for virtual workstations.

Thin or zero-client devices in  VDI environments are becoming more common as high-profile data is centralized and stored on a single server with associated hardware that provides AES 256 and NSA Suite B encryption and other serious  features. Virtualized organizations may also recognize the speed and security benefits of this arrangement.

Banking and finance, healthcare, government and education are just a few  examples of industries diving into virtual workstations and endpoints. Don't forget about manufacturing, utilities, real estate, military, retail, transportation and more. If you find yourself in need of any of these industry requirements, from security to performance, you may want to consider what a virtual desktop environment can do for you.
