Full Cloud Security with US Desktops
If you are in the healthcare, finance or retail industries, and require extra security, we can provide it, in either the public or private cloud. We also offer the option of two-factor authentication via smart phone, in addition to user ID and password, for greater security.
US Desktops also offer security advantages for end users:
-
Automatic back-up minimizes the risk of data loss
-
Only screen images are sent to the local cloud desktop device. Your data cannot be accessed even if an end-user device is lost or stolen
-
If a laptop fails when an employee is on the road, they can access their virtual desktop from another device
With US Desktops private virtual desktops, all communications between servers and your devices are encrypted unless this is specifically disabled.
