Benefits:
• Increased user mobility and productivity—RingCube and McAfee enable users to become truly mobile by moving their personalized desktop between a desktop PC, a laptop, virtual desktop infrastructure (virtual desktop) and a McAfee Encrypted USB device, all while providing access to their desktop from any PC, whether online or offline
• Lower desktop management costs and licensing—RingCube vDesk enables IT organizations to dramatically lower the cost of desktop management by accelerating desktop provisioning, simplifying backup, and increasing user productivity
• Easier business continuity, disaster recovery, and pandemic planning—RingCube vDesk automatically backs up every desktop to a network file share. If a user loses their McAfee Encrypted USB drive containing their vDesk Workspace, they can login to the vDesk user portal to download an up-to-date copy of their personalized desktop to a new McAfee Encrypted USB drive and be up and running in minutes. When a drive is lost, the vDesk workspace on the lost drive can be remotely disabled until it is found or completely revoked to prevent any further access.
Key Features:
• Install and run vDesk workspaces securely from the USB device—Users can conveniently and securely run their desktop environment wherever they go
• vDesk MobileSync—Enables users to synchronize their vDesk workspace between any of the four vDesk deployment options (PC, drive, network, enterprise VDI) and work offline
• Centralized management—vDesk Administration Server deploys, updates, and manages vDesk workspaces on McAfee Encrypted USB drives on an enterprise-wide scale
• Implement strong encryption—Removable USB storage protected using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)-256 hardware encryption
• Prevent unauthorized access to vDesk workspace data—Two-factor authentication requires users to authenticate using a password and fingerprint
• Built-in encryption key generation and certificate storage—Prevents encryption keys from being copied because they never leave the USB drive. There is also an option to store other encryption keys and/or public key infrastructure (PKI) certificates.
