Government / Military

While security has markedly improved in government, military and public sector installations, cyber threats continue to be
prevalent. Key concerns include securing sensitive information, network breaches, malware attacks and cyber terrorism. With
secure KVM desktop switches deployed, government agencies can minimize security threats by ensuring data integrity
between user desktops accessing secure and unsecure networks. With security features such as tamper-evident tape, chassis
intrusion detection, and tamper-proof hardware coupled with layers of software security, secure desktop kvm switches can
mitigate the vulnerabilities of a variety of cyber attacks.

Secure Desktop Solution for Military Offices
A large state-owned office building that housed various government branches was looking to upgrade a section of its IT
installation to consolidate multiple workstations of various security classification levels with one keyboard, video monitor and
mouse. While the desktop functionalities required by the government office were similar to a regular desktop KVM switch,
the new solution needed to provide both hardware and software-based security features built into the units. It was also
imperative that the solution provided true network separation between classified and non-classified and complied with the
latest international protection protocols.
