The Coronavirus crisis is leading governments around the world to adopt exceptional measures to prevent the spread of the disease. In Spain, the Ministry of Labor and Social Economy has published a Guide for the workplace in relation to the new Coronavirus. It provides information on the application of labor regulations and includes a series of preventive measures so that companies know how to act if there is a risk of infection in the workplace. Among them, teleworking is mentioned, which for many companies is feasible thanks to the adoption of technologies such as desktop virtualization.
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.
