VirtualCable, the Company behind UDS Enterprise, a VDI and vApp connection broker, has announced through its website the compatibility of its software with OpenGnsys to provide authenticated access to remote PCs, as indicated in the University of Sevilla’s Communication Portal.
Javier Suela, Head of the System Department of Hispanagua:
“The added value of UDS Enterprise compared to other solutions is undoubtedly the automation when generating virtual desktops”.
All the departments of Hispanagua that can keep on operating from home are using UDS Enterprise for remote working during the alarm state declared by Covid-19. Most employees connect remotely to their computers located in the workplace and some access their tools through virtual desktops.
The spirit of innovation of Carlos III University of Madrid (UC3M) is reflected in its bet on new technologies to improve the service provided to students, teachers and administrative staff. This educational center has always been at the forefront of new trends, so they were early adopters of desktop virtualization in 2012.
UC3M relied on UDS Enterprise connection broker from the very beginning to deploy and administer VDI lifecycle. One of te main reasons they opted for this software was the flexibility it provides to the infrastructure, since it enables to use multiple hypervisors, authenticators and connection protocols, explained Alfonso J. Puebla, Coordinator of Technical Unit of Learning Areas at UC3M.
Last week we talked about the advantages of desktop virtualization to face work from home challenges for IT departments, such as software licenses management. In this post we deal with one of the areas of greatest concern for most companies: security
When an employee works from home using a personal device, it is really difficult to guarantee that his computer adheres to the company’s security policies. IT administrators must check whether a device is 100% secure and if it has, for example, an outdated OS or if it is infested with malware.
Over last years, more and more companies are embracing remote working and allow employees to work from home at least part time. This new trend presents new challenges, but all of them can be solved thanks to desktop virtualization, which helps IT to control work environments both inside or outside the office.
For many companies considering work from home as an option, one of the firsts issues they face is how to manage software licenses. If an employee needs a licenced application for work, it must be installed both in the computer he uses at the office and at home, therefore licensing costs double.
The UDS Enterprise Team joins the World Teleworking Day, since working from home is one of the advantages provided by our multiplatform connection broker for Windows and Linux.
UDS Enterprise enables the deployment of desktop, vApp and other IT services hosted in the Data Center or Cloud, so that users can access them anywhere, anytime and from any device.
