Get Your Desktop Risk under Control
Posted on May 10th, 2010 by admin |
You don’t know what’s going on with the desktops across your organization. It’s the Wild West out there. Non-standard software, personal website surfing and connections over public wireless networks after hours can lead to an accumulation of desktop risk that can spread to your enterprise as fast as … well, as fast as a virus can move from one computer to the next.
A loose desktop management environment introduces a wide range of potential consequences. At a minimum, your desktop support team could wind up investing hours in remedying end-user problems that were utterly preventable. In the extreme, careless internet use could open the doors of your enterprise to a destructive virus that could bring your entire operation to a halt, obliterating revenue and company value.
Many IT departments have implemented an array of policies, particularly around non-standard software and internet use, as a way to protect data and systems from internal or external malice. Unfortunately, these policies provide little protection: rules are broken all the time. You need a reliable technological resolution.
Citrix XenDesktop 4 provides the control you need over your desktop environment to reduce risk and streamline operations. Every time a user logs on, he’ll receive a fresh, pristine desktop, which reflects a variety of personal settings and application and system access roles. So, your desktop team won’t be constrained by an environment that can’t handle the needs of a diverse user base.
While it’s impossible to remove IT risk completely, you can tame the desktop environment. Desktop virtualization can put you back in control of the technology – with no detrimental impact to your end users.
