Business Need
 Is it possible to setup and manage white listed only applications versus having to maintain a list and block all unapproved software?
Viewfinity Capability
Viewfinity can be configured to support a "white list only" model so that when an end user logs in, his/her desktop is configured to only present and run the applications that are required for them to work. Other standard desktop applications are not available — no games, IM, iTunes, etc. are visible.
ROI Considerations
- Reduces end user support and malware incidents
- Improves network and asset utilization by restricting the use of non business-critical applications
- Ensures business-critical applications are meeting corporate configuration standards

Business Need
I need to allow standard users to run applications that require admin privileges, but I don't want to grant administrator rights to end-users.
Viewfinity Capability
Viewfinity Elevate Privileges functionality allows IT Administrators to manage and assign administrative privilege permissions to specific applications per desktop or group of users without granting full administrative rights to the desktop/users. Other than applications identified and flagged for elevated privileges, the desktop operates within the least privileges mode.
ROI Considerations
- Ensures Federal FDCC, SOX, and HIPPA compliance through centralized control and designation of PC administrative rights by application
- Places security decisions in the hands of IT staff instead of end-users
- Reduces probability of malicious and virus attacks on corporate laptops & desktops

Business Need
I need to be able to protect a stolen laptop so that sensitive corporate applications cannot be used by malicious and unauthorized users.
Viewfinity Capability
Viewfinity Block Application has the ability to automatically prevent application usage if a laptop is reported stolen. The ability to completely block an application is possible because of our desktop virtualization and encapsulation architecture. Block works even when the laptop is outside the corporate network (note, any policy can be applied as long the PC is connected to the Internet).
ROI Considerations
- Protects corporate IT assets
- Addresses the threats to the privacy of customers and employees
- Secures sensitive corporate assets such as critical applications

Business Need
Can I use the same computer for both work and personal use without compromising corporate compliance rules?
Viewfinity Capability
Viewfinity creates work and home profiles containing applications that can be activated / deactivated accordingly. Applications can be white listed by time slot whereby enabling/disabling access to certain applications during working hours or weekends or based upon connectivity status. This approach increases user satisfaction by providing flexible application policies instead of completely blocking non-standard applications.
ROI Considerations
- Secures sensitive corporate assets such as critical applications and files while working offline
- Enforces compliance rules even when the laptop is not connected to the corporate network
- Improves network and asset utilization by restricting the use of non business-critical applications during business hours

Business Need
We need to reduce the number of IT support calls that are related to changes that an end user has accidentally made to his desktop or application configuration.
Viewfinity Capability
Application Lockdown provides the ability to customize application settings and, once configured, an application can be locked down. If an end user accidentally removes a toolbar or deletes a printer, his standard configuration can easily be reset.
ROI Considerations
- Maintains standard application settings that can be rolled back to protected state
- Saves on support calls to IT by decreasing the number of unintentional changes
