Providing a Secure Employee Work-From-Home IT Solution
As organizations seek to provide safety for their workers while maintaining the safety of their data, they will face increased security risks delivering mission-critical applications to remote employees while keeping them efficient and the business running. Getting this done quickly is easier than you might think.
If you have already transitioned your entire workforce to work remotely, you may be interested in transitioning your organization to a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI).
With hyperconvergence and virtualization, VDI is achievable for any size IT department, without the layers of complexity or prohibitive costs often associated with VDI solutions.
How-To: Quickly Enable Work From Home and Remote Desktop Access
Work From Home Options with Scale Computing and Leostream
Quickly Enable Work From Home and Remote Desktop Access
Actionable steps you can take today, and long-term solutions
This allows you to quickly set up a work from home strategy without needing to buy each employee a laptop because they can use a personal BYOD device like a home PC, laptop, tablet, or even a smart TV.
In the future, having these components in place allows you to more easily roll out a full VDI solution to keep your data more secure and better support both local and remote users while maintaining security and data protection best practices.
Remote Desktop Access - Users can securely connect to their workloads remotely for access to all the applications and data they need, no matter what platform - Windows, Mac, and Linux
Run on Existing Infrastructure - Enable remote worker desktop sessions on the existing physical desktops, virtual desktop infrastructure, or terminal service solutions you currently run
Improved Security – Keep data off of the end user’s remote devices, to ensure that sensitive data never leaves your data center
Bring Your Own Device - Enable users to use the devices they prefer to access desktop sessions and applications efficiently and securely.
Prepare for the Future - Steps you take today can easily merge into a full VDI solution when the time comes
Work From Home and VDI Made More Accessible
Scale Computing has streamlined work from home and virtual desktop infrastructure for the distributed enterprise, and all those for whom VDI was unaffordable or unrealistic in the past.
Very quick to implement
No modifications to existing infrastructure, the workload runs where it always has (workstation at the office for example), Leostream acts as a portal to the local device.
No need to purchase laptops
Uses existing desktops and sets up the components for anywhere access - no need to buy laptops, desktops, etc. Allow access to work from anywhere and on any device that has a browser and internet access.
No VPN required
Just like logging into Salesforce or another online cloud service, you don’t need a VPN, just Active Directory authentication (username and password).
"Shout out to the team of Scale Computing and Leostream Corporation. We at Horizon Health have been working very hard over the last few years to make this VDI system the best it can be. The greatest feeling in my job was to tell those above me at the hospital we were ready for remote work from day one. I had a user come back to me today overjoyed about being able to see her same desktop from home that she sees at work. For a small hospital this has been a game changer over the last few weeks. Thanks again to the wonderful people at Scale Computing and Leostream Corporation for all the great teamwork."
