4. Virtualizing The Desktop
Having a Virtual Desktop can solve those challenges
• Centralizing desktop management leaves the
administrators in control of each users environment
eliminating time consuming visits to help with software
issues, updates and patches
• XenDesktop helps tighten desktop security by enabling
IT staff to ensure that critical data- including e-mail
messages and documents do not leave the secure data
center, and keeping users from downloading it to
potentially vulnerable client systems
• Open OS enables users to access the Virtual Desktop
with any device via a private access link
