whitepaper Desktop Security2005-09-23 03:00:03
  Today's employee computing environment offers access to powerful applications and downloads, which can introduce new security challenges for corporate IT. With the nature of the employee workplace becoming increasingly more interconnected and mobile, the frequency and cost of the resulting security intrusions can be high. Perimeter security and antivirus solutions cannot adequately protect against these threats. Websense provides innovative end-point security solutions that identify and block known and unknown threats automatically, and prevent unknown applications, such as spyware, keyloggers, peer-to-peer transmissions, and hacking tools, from launching.   
whitepaper How CLI Thin Clients Can Work in Education Environments2005-05-27 03:00:01 Computer Lab International
  Use of CLI thin client devices instead of PCs or other devices in education environments can dramatically reduce Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), and improve the delivery of educational content in the process. CLI thin clients can be used in K-12 settings, and also in university settings, by students, teachers, and administrators alike. To fully understand this, it is important to understand what server-based computing is, and what CLI thin clients are.   
whitepaper Automating the Deployment and Image Management of a Citrix Hosted Client Environment2005-12-01 01:00:02
  This paper describes how to use IBM Director and Remote Deployment Manager to construct rapid deployment images for provisioning a Citrix-based hosted client infrastructure including Aurema ARMTech for Citrix, Softricity SoftGrid client, and the Cygwin shell. This paper includes detailed steps to configure Microsoft's roaming user profiles and folder redirection to manage user data, how to use Citrix MetaFrame Presentation server to publish a desktop and how to create an ICA connection from a Neoware thin client to a Citrix MetaFrame publication. In addition, methods for enhancing the management of this solution architecture via leveraging the capabilities of IBM Tivoli Provisioning Manager are explored.   
whitepaper Configuring a Windows XP Embedded Thin Client2005-08-09 03:00:02
  This white paper provides an overview of the initial steps needed to customize a Windows XP Embedded run-time image for thin clients. It gives an overview of the hardware on the development system that is used in the run-time image's Hardware Abstraction Layer. It explains how to run Target Analyzer to create a Devices.pmq file that includes all the device drivers required to operate the target hardware. It describes how to use Component Designer to create a component definition (.sld) file that lists the hardware components for the run-time image. The white paper also explains how to add missing components to the .sld file, and how to customize the configuration by adding additional components.

  The Tsunami hit Asia but shook the world.

In the aftermath of the Asian Tsunami, the world rallied to help the affected region in rescue and recovery, including IBM.

The IBM Crisis Response Team was there to help coordinate a responsive, efficient, and reliable relief management effort. IBM's efforts included logistics support and management, victim tracking, and helpline services. Download this white paper to learn more. 		  
whitepaper Sun Ray Ultra-Thin Client Deployment Options2005-11-03 01:00:03 Sun Microsystems
  The thin client deployment architecture can take several forms depending on the needs or current infrastructure of the business. Implementations can range from a small, single office network, to a highly secure implementation deployed over multiple locations, to multiple end-user groups such as a military installation or a financial services organization. This paper also addresses various ways in which Sun Ray ultra-thin clients can be implemented into new or existing networks; how they can be used to provide Microsoft Windows ("Windows") functionality; and what deployment options exist in environments such as home offices, secure multinetworks, and branch offices. These are presented in helpful scenarios later in the paper.

whitepaper XTS-400 Trusted Computer System: Technical Overview2005-09-01 03:00:04 BAE Systems
  The BAE Systems Information Technology XTS-400 Trusted Computer System is the successor to the worlds' only National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP) evaluated high-assurance general-purpose computer system. The XTS-400 features Linux compatibility and supports contemporary Intel hardware speeds. It is designed to require no porting of common applications which run on Linux, to be easy to develop for and to allow the use of a wide variety of modern development tools. It is designed for and has been submitted for Common Criteria Evaluation against a robust Security Target at a high Evaluation Assurance Level. The XTS-300 is currently deployed in several accredited, operational trusted applications worldwide.   
whitepaper XTS-400 Trusted Computer System2005-09-01 03:00:04 BEA Systems
  As a trusted computer system, BAE Systems's XTS-400 is ideal for hosting trusted guard and server applications. With high-power Pentium or Xeon server hardware, the XTS-400 design is based on its predecessor, the XTS-300, the only general-purpose computer system in the world rated at the B3 level by the National Security Agency. This design implements an NSA evaluated mandatory integrity policy that can provide files, data and applications unparalleled protection from unauthorized tampering by malicious users or rogue software.   
whitepaper Moving to a Linux Desktop: A Novell and Versora Migration Study2005-02-01 Novell
  Migrating from Windows to Linux on the desktop can be a substantial undertaking because it has the potential for touching - and perhaps disrupting - every user in the organization. Unlike a data center (server and infrastructure) migration that is largely transparent to users, the cultural and administrative transitions and environment readiness required to support a Linux desktop migration are sometimes extensive. Even so, many organizations have made and are making this move. A growing number of organizations are using Linux desktops successfully and across-the-board to increase flexibility, realize cost reductions, provide better security, and avoid vendor lock in - even though doing so sometimes requires extra effort and creativity.
