Secure remote control for conventional and virtual desktops

Many organizations have a mix of conventional desktops, sessions virtualized with Citrix / Terminal Services, and fully virtualized desktops such as VMware. A single remote control platform for user support is going to be key to providing an efficient helpdesk. User support, with the ability to take control of a user's PC and view the screen, is a particularly demanding situation. Protection of user privacy must be balanced by the need for privileged access, in accordance with compliance frameworks and legislation.

Find out about a class of remote control product in which the customer retains full control over the way in which screen and keystroke data is transmitted. This is fundamentally differentiated from products and services in which your data is routed through third party servers. This whitepaper details some aspects of PC-Duo functionality but the topics will help provide a basic set of headings under which to evaluate any potential remote control choice.

BYOD's dark side: Data protection

Endpoint protection by enterprise IT is no longer an option. There is too much risk for data loss and leakage. Maintaining productivity is also critical, the time it takes to re-create data, rebuild laptops from scratch and migrate to new OS versions can all be avoided with the proper investment in an endpoint data protection solution.

IT can no longer sit on the sidelines hoping that users “do the right thing” with an organization’s data. Doing so leads to a variety of problems including loss of data control. IT needs an endpoint data protection solution that adds value to the users, so they will embrace it. It should also add value to the organization so it can protect itself from data loss as well as leverage corporate data on user endpoints. Finally an endpoint protection strategy should bring value to IT itself so its job can be completed easier and more efficiently. HP’s Connected Backup is an excellent example of solutions that can do just that.
