All the power of the server at the reach of any device

Our shielded remote desktop solution is revolutionizing the way companies manage their IT infrastructure. One of Endurance’s greatest advantages is its ability to centralize operations on robust servers while allowing users to access all their power from lightweight and simple devices. Endurance its ready to use all the power of the server.

What is a shielded remote desktop?

Endurance’s shielded remote desktop is not a common solution. It combines a centralized connection architecture with advanced isolation (VDI), encryption (Vault), and privilege management (PAM) technologies. Unlike a traditional remote desktop, where data and applications typically flow between the server and the user’s device, the shielded remote desktop operates under an ultra-secure approach:

1. Only key events travel (mouse, keyboard, video, and audio).
   This means that no critical information, such as credentials or sensitive data, ever leaves the server. The user’s device functions solely as a control interface, completely detached from the company’s internal systems.
2. Total endpoint isolation.
   Even if the device the user is accessing from were compromised, there would be no way for an attacker to penetrate the corporate systems.
3. VDI and advanced access technologies.
   With the support of Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), user sessions are managed from virtualized environments running on protected servers, reducing exposure to attacks.

Operational benefits of the shielded remote desktop

1. Reduced dependency on end-user hardware

The end user does not need powerful equipment that requires a significant investment to access the most demanding applications and tools. With just a keyboard, a basic monitor, and a good connection, they can work with the power of the server. This is ideal for:

• Companies with users distributed across different locations.
• Quick deployments in temporary projects.
• Resource optimization in SMEs.

2. Increased security

With this approach:

• Data never leaves the server, eliminating the risk of leaks or theft.
• Centralized control over connections is guaranteed.
• The possibility of attacks from malware or ransomware, which often spread through compromised endpoints, is limited.

3. Reduction of operational costs

Implementing a shielded remote desktop with Endurance allows:

• Avoid constant investments in user equipment.
• Reduce expenses related to the maintenance and technical support of physical workstations.
• Consolidate infrastructure into a centralized and easier-to-manage environment.

Real-world application cases

Education sector

The implementation of shielded remote desktops is a transformative solution for the education sector. In universities, schools, and vocational training centers, access to advanced tools such as design software, simulators, or programming environments typically requires expensive equipment.

With Endurance, educational institutions can:

• Optimize their budget: Replace expensive equipment with lightweight and affordable terminals that simply serve as an interface.
• Promote equal access: Students, regardless of their resources, can access the same tools from anywhere using basic devices or even their own equipment.
• Simplify technical management: By centralizing operations on a server, administrators only need to maintain a single infrastructure, eliminating the need to configure each individual device.

In addition, this facilitates remote access to virtual classrooms and protects sensitive data, such as grades, research, or personal information of students and faculty.

Banking sector

In banking, security and operational efficiency are critical. Shielded remote desktops provide an ideal solution for managing branches, customer service, and back-office operations.

Key benefits for banking:

• Regulatory compliance: With strict regulations like GDPR or PSD2, the shielded remote desktop ensures that customer data never leaves the secure server environment.
• Protection against attacks: Banking operations, including transfers, account management, and access to financial data, are carried out in a shielded environment, reducing the risks of cyberattacks.
• Flexibility for remote work: Employees can work from anywhere without compromising the security of operations, making it ideal for hybrid environments.

Telecommunications sector

Telecommunications companies manage critical networks and massive amounts of data, requiring secure environments for their operations. The shielded remote desktop allows them to centralize the management of their infrastructure, protect sensitive data, and ensure the uninterrupted operation of their services.

Key applications in telecommunications:

• Remote infrastructure management: Technicians can access and manage antennas, servers, and critical systems from a secure environment, minimizing the risks of disruptions or unauthorized tampering.
• Security against internal and external threats: With the shielded remote desktop, credentials and privileged access are protected, preventing unauthorized access.
• Cost reduction in technical equipment: Operators can use basic devices to access advanced monitoring and control platforms, reducing hardware expenses.

Conclusion

Endurance’s shielded remote desktop is more than just a technological tool: it’s a paradigm shift in the way we work. From cost reduction to enhanced security, this solution stands out as one of the most efficient options for businesses of all sizes.
