Security is one of the top concerns for many users, companies and organizations, that look for the best solutions to keep sensitive data safe.
KeePassX is one of them, an Open Source application both for Windows and Linux with a light interface which saves user names, passwords, urls, attachments and comments in a properly encrypted single database.
UDS Enterprise, the multiplatform connection broker to deploy and manage virtual and physical desktops, applications and other Windows and Linux services, features a unique authentication system that not only supports different authentication methods, but also allows to use them simultaneously and enable splitted authentication.
The broker incorporates an internal database authenticator which enables connections to any registered service in the system using a single generic connection user.
As usual, today we collect the most read articles in our blog during the last weeks. We talk about application virtualization, remote desktop services and security regarding thin clients used for desktop virtualization.
Find below the links to these posts so that you keep up to date with the latests news on virtualization and Open Source:
Thin clients are one useful option for VDI access. Some of these devices don’t require antimalware software, as they are secure enough by their own.
But some others require extra protection in order to assure data and users security. One example are repurposed PCs as thin clients, since although they are not usually configured to run software locally, they are tecnically vulnerable to different types of malware.
Google and Red Hat have been working together to release a patch for a bug in GNU C Library or glibc, used by most Linux applications, distros and devices.
This vulnerability can be remotely exploited when users click on a link or connect to a Linux server, allowing cybercriminals to steal passwords, spy on users or seize control of computers.
The choice of UDS Enterprise as best VDI tech and pricing proposal by a commitee comprised of experts from more than 20 Spanish universities, the video showing how application virtualization with UDS Enterprise works and a list of Open Source firewalls for SMBs have been the most read posts in our blog during the last weeks.
