Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) solutions can boost IT security for healthcare facilities, according to an article on the Becker's Health IT & CIO Review website.
VDIs use an on-site or cloud-based data center to host an organization's files, data and applications.
Instead of logging into a cloud service and bringing up a personal user profile stored on the cloud, VDIs allow end-users to access a simulated version of the desktop through whatever mobile device they choose, the article said.
VDI solutions offer the convenience of mobile devices, but with a greater level of security and at a reduced cost.
