DesktopDirect is an innovative, remote desktop access solution. Unlike VPNs, DesktopDirect enables employees to get to their office computers from any remote location — whether they are at their home office, a customer or partner site, a public Internet kiosk or even on an iPhone, iPad or Android device. DesktopDirect uniquely leverages proven and scalable technologies to deliver the industry's most secure and cost-effective solution for remote desktop access and control.

Simple, Secure Access to Office Desktops
In order to boost productivity and mitigate the effects of business disruptions, office employees need a way to work remotely. DesktopDirect is an appliance-based [http://www.arraynetworks.com/products-remote-desktop-access-desktopdirect.html remote desktop] access solution that enables workers with an office PC to be productive from any location on any device with full security. Office workers get a full view into their physical or virtual desktops, resulting in immediate productivity without the need to add them to the VPN user base or issue additional laptops.

* Data Never Leaves the Network Users control office PCs using remote devices secured by DesktopDirect end point controls, eliminating the potential for data leakage

* Full [http://www.arraynetworks.com/solutions-application-availability.html Application Availability] Leverages and extends the existing application and security environment on office PCs to maximize productivity at minimal cost

* Simple to Deploy, Easy to Use Allows users to self-register office desktops and utilize single sign-on to access desktops from a URL or mobile application

Scalable, Cost-Effective and Fully-Featured Remote Desktop Access
Employees first browse to a URL that is given to them by their IT administrator. Next, they enter their single sign-on (SSO) credentials — the same credentials they enter every day to log into their office computers. Then they get to work.

User Self-Registration
DesktopDirect enables administrators to choose whether to manually register desktops (individually or in bulk), or whether to allow dynamic self-registration of desktops by users directly, making registration of desktops easy, fast, and transparent.

Scalable Appliances
DesktopDirect runs on the award-winning line of Array Networks SPX Series [http://www.arraynetworks.com/products-spx-universal-access-controllers.html Universal Access Controllers]. The remote desktop access appliance supports high-speed hardware SSL encryption and built-in active clustering for unmatched performance, scalability and high availability.

Tablets for Business
DesktopDirect addresses tablet access and the constant expansion of client platforms, specifically the increase in popularity of newer web browsers and iPhone and iPad business users. DesktopDirect's low bandwidth consumption and application availability delivers a high quality of experience for end users, while IT benefits from easier deployment and fewer support calls to handle.

Full IT Control
DesktopDirect's elegant architecture leverages existing AAA policies via tight integration with the most common authentication methods, including Active Directory, RSA SecurID, RADIUS, and LDAP. AAA data is kept deep inside the trusted network so potential new security risks are never an issue.

Power Management
DesktopDirect's power management capabilities deliver the industry's first and only energy-efficient remote access solution. By allowing users to remotely turn on their PCs when needed, the average mid-sized company can save $165,000 in annual energy costs and significantly reduce environmental impact from carbon dioxide emissions.
