It’s
4 am in the morning and you awaken to the sound of your pager blaring… Joe CEO
calling from halfway around the world after his computer crashed during an investor
presentation. Another beep… The east coast team is plagued with a zero-day worm
that will cripple their PCs for a week. Yet one more beep… Due to licensing
issues, all 500 employees at your company need an updated service pack ASAP.
Sound like an IT administrator’s worst nightmare?
Join MokaFive co-founder and CTO, John Whaley, as he discusses desktop
virtualization as a potential dream-come-true for IT administrators faced with
demanding users and impending disasters. Whaley will cover how desktop
virtualization provides solutions to accommodate a mobile workforce including
secure remote access, ability to work online or offline, running complete
operating systems and applications off a USB flash drive or iPod, and
centrally-managed updates delivered simultaneously. Whaley will also talk about
key security benefits to building and deploying virtual desktops including
malware immunity, backing up to the cloud and automatic rejuvenation.
