Information security

By Ron BurrowsPublished 3 years ago 3 min read

Want to know who is the most stressful in the enterprise these days? Is the chief information security officer. Because they are senior managers responsible for developing and implementing information security programs, they will be held responsible if violations occur.

Prior to the COVID-19 epidemic, the chief information security officer could place vulnerable applications and data in security domains (which are usually well-defined firewalls).VDI is a technology and method that uses virtual machines to provide and manage virtual desktops. In other words, it provides a standard, approved desktop configuration that includes all the applications and data that employees need to do their work remotely through an open Internet. VDI hosts the desktop environment on a centralized server and deploys it to users as needed.

Today, this is impossible. In the early days of the COVID-19 epidemic, maintaining corporate security suddenly became more interesting as employees were forced to work remotely. One of the weapons that chief information security officers continue to use is virtual desktop infrastructure, or VDI.

VDI is a technology and method that uses virtual machines to provide and manage virtual desktops. In other words, it provides a standard, approved desktop configuration that includes all the applications and data that employees need to do their work remotely through an open Internet. VDI hosts the desktop environment on a centralized server and deploys it to users as needed.

Although VDI is not new in some form, it has recently become increasingly popular because it provides a standard, secure way to work from home using applications and data from centralized, secure locations in public clouds or enterprise data centers. If you work for a large enterprise or government agency, it is likely that you have already used a cloud provider's VDI or are currently using VDI.According to the authoritative survey, 31.3% of the respondents believe that the ability to enable telecommuting is the most important reason for choosing VDI, and 24.1% of the respondents list security as the most important reason. Another group of respondents (18.8%) gave priority to the ability to achieve a flexible work environment, including working with any device, such as a computer, mobile phone, or tablet.

However, some VDI problems are emerging that deserve the attention of CIOs and require CIOs to overcome them.

Not all home-based Internet connections support high speed and low latency. In fact, even if you spend a lot of money to improve the connection speed, after detailed monitoring, you will find that the overall latency and speed are quite sudden.

There is a delay in VDI, and even if it is not obvthat affect productivity.
