ThinLinc Terminal Server Solution for Government

Protecting critical infrastructure takes a combined and coordinated effort. Today more than ever, government agencies rely on being able to access, share and act on essential information - from other agencies and functions, and across borders. For these agencies, server based computing is an essential requirement to support multiple branch locations. Many agencies also need to communicate with other government agencies, often in other states or other countries, making it an even greater challenge to deliver application content over expensive Internet connections. The security and integrity of the content is critical to ensuring that confidential information is not compromised.

The ThinLinc terminal server solution provides public servants with uninterrupted, secure access to critical applications and information needed to effectively respond to emergencies, disaster recovery and delivering basic services. Agencies can increase worker productivity and efficiency, improve citizens' satisfaction and reduce the costs of IT infrastructure.

How ThinLinc can help the Government sector:

• Increase administrative efficiency and leverage existing infrastructure

• Provide better service to citizens and employees

• Provide secure, consistent access to government applications and information to a geographically dispersed workforce

• Improve application performance for local and remote agency locations

• Reduce the encryption processing burden on the application server, resulting in better performance for the applications and better usage of the server resources, as well as absolute content privacy.

• The terminal server acts as a bridge between the user and the application servers. In this way the user can have access to the applications best suited for the job, no matter what operating system the application happens to be programmed for. It's easy to mix programs from Linux, Unix and Windows, for instance, on the same desktop.

• Enables authorized and secure information and application sharing between agencies

• Provides security protection within the data center, including intrusion filtering, defense and protection against worms

• Ensure complete privacy of application content

• Protect critical infrastructure in the event of a planned or unplanned outage
