another addition to the safe in suite of
applications secure desktop
what is secured to stop well so thin
secure test two blocks down users
desktops most retaining familiar look
feel and functionality of Windows this
prevents them from accessing
unnecessary programs and files it also
simplifies the way you mention it worked
and improves security Secure Desktop is
easy and straightforward to use
and settings and look towns can be
applied by administrators be fairly
basic skill sets
it provides the ability to control and
manage your systems with the Familia
test of style
but incorporates task bar mounted icons
in keeping with users expectations
using Secure Desktop shorts client site
lockdown
try to secure computing environment
resulting in substantial reduction of
the IT costs
okay let's look at some the benefits its
height manageability
reduces pressure on IT resources
training resulting in a lower total cost
of ownership
using Secure Desktop also helps prevent
the spread of malicious software
and viruses it also helps prevent date
affect or loss
as no data is stored on the Clyde device
of course
it been secured estopped it prevents
users from making of rice configuration
changes
or installing software it can stop users
from copying complete a titty USB drives
CD-rom's of floppy disks
but still provides axis be internet all
web based applications
it allows users to use product with
minimal or no training and improves
workflow
and can extend the life span of existing
hardware
something secure to stop supported on
Windows 95
98 nt4 2000 XP
effect stupid version as well as running
of its stupid applications
which run on be supported operating
systems and his hardware vendor
independent it supports local CD drives
DVD's
and USB drives and multiple monitors it
has full likes of
Active Directory Integration and has
full printer support
Secure Desktop Support mobile internet
cards and adapters
which particular usual for laptop and
mobile workers and secure desktop
also supports full multimedia content
using the local system sources
okay let's take a closer look
before the sake and sweet is able to
benefit you in your organization
we first need to deploy the software to
the Clyde devices this is done through
the software deployment application
what we selected the software we want to
deploy we can right click it and select
deploy software using the soap in sweet
it's also possible to deploy your
own software packages as long as they
allow unattended setup
routines now we've selected the deploy
option
we get prompted to accept the license
agreement for the selected software
package
this must be accepted to continue with
the installation
once we've accepted the license
agreement we can select which computers
to deploy to select a package to you
we have the ability to select
alternative to Maine's for those with
more complex networks
and also the ability to install to as
many computers on those demands
as we wish in this example we're going
to be deployed to a single device
now we've been prompted for
administrative credentials
each credentials need to be valid for
each selected computer
to allow the software to be deployed the
system will attempt to authenticate
supplied credentials however if this
does not work
the deployment was it was still attempt
to authenticate installation process
with the supplied credentials here we
have the option of selecting when the
install will take place
by default the machines will be repeated
immediately and deployed to
however we can on select this option to
allow the software to install itself
upon next boot
okay now we can see the status of us off
with deployment
any computers that fail to install be
showing here's failed
and you'll have the option of running
away to the Ken on these computers to
solve
any issues that may have occurred now
we've moved to the think like manager
the application in the management
console but allows us to control the
behavior
of deployed think like devices here we
go to open a predefined configuration
file
however on a new set up you can simply
click new computer
to create one of these from scratch now
receive Open Screen
the configuration dialog for the
securitised client device
the General tab allows access to common
restriction options such as hiding menu
options
as well as to saving certain cokie
combinations okay
at this point need to set administration
password the device
on its a thin thin client device there's
the option gaining access to the
configuration locally
by use of a special hockey combination
this screen will be password-protected
with the past with you specify here this
stops anyone authorize user
from gaining access to the local
configuration many times network
administrator may decide
itself no purpose to have for you to
look into the workstation for this
reason we have a name with the option of
having
automatic logon function this allows you
to specify credentials which
automatically lock the workstation on
thus allowing for use at the ability to
sit down assist device
and immediately get to work Robin have
to wait for local logo
we can also specify any programs that
should automatically start when the
client much loads
this could be anything from a local
script to a kiosk application
we also have the ability of looking down
local drives on some secure test devices
certain applications may have the
ability to breath computer for tater
and thus gain access to unauthorized
items disabling unecessary tries on the
computer
closest as potential security issue the
final step in configuring
the safe and secure desktop client is
dispersed by the management server
this is from a more IP address of the
computer that holds the authoritative
Management Console
manages also think light settings you
can also select the group that this
device blocs de
the group controls applications that are
available to that particular workstation
or user
okay now that could deploy the software
and configure the client
we can to update the client with the
settings with just specified
by default also think lights for have a
management said the specified will check
that serve
every time application starts and if any
local configuration options
don't matter some server the settings
will be reapplied
from the server to the client we also
have the option of sending the think
light setting static
any number configured devices simply
select the devices you wish to update
i click OK in the similar method to the
software deployment was it
the uptake desktop screen will show us
which a facility computers were able to
receive their updates
any computers but failed to step may
have a final other configurations that
may prevent communication
with the management console even though
we set the settings to the computer
it's still running standard Windows
desktop about is to save Italy the
software is deployed
the system hasn't yet been converted to
run the sites in think like interface
if we now right click computer and
select but test tubes
this allows us to make ready for use any
computer
citing client software on the convict s
2.2 works very much like the
uptick tests went to however here we
have an additional option
to temper select two computers into so
thin thin client devices
won't attend the back into standard
Windows desktops you can highlight
multiple options by using the shift or
control keys
again we see the state to screen Ching
which computers were able to receive the
command to convert
him with open the safe in remote control
connection to the applicable client
device
dish over finish setup here we can see
people out several applications
including a web browser
instant messaging application and media
player
as you can see the simple yet effective
configuration safe and secure desktop
awesome flexible and agile deployment
about single all multiple machines
what's the application itself secures
the local computer
and districts issues to whatever you
wish for to run making it
as a name implies secure for further
