The updated Kaspersky Thin Client 2.3 includes support for UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) — a modern type of firmware that replaces the outdated BIOS (Basic Input/Output System). It provides faster system loading. UEFI also supports Secure Boot technology, which protects the startup process from unauthorized changes.
Kaspersky Thin Client 2.3 has expanded support for peripherals: most USB drives, printers, scanners, webcams, and headsets available on the market can be used in both Windows and Linux environments. Through a single console, administrators can centrally configure monitors, applications, and even personalize the desktop and lock screen.
The solution has also been supplemented with other options aimed at improving convenience and optimizing processes. For example, only the applications that the employee has selected in the settings can be displayed on the thin client's desktop, and the OS interface can be adapted to the company's brand book. In addition, video conferencing technical support has appeared for remote resolution of technical issues.
Kaspersky Thin Client 2.3 is available on two hardware platforms — Tonk TN1200 and Dell Wyse 3040. Kaspersky Lab said:
The solution is in demand in industries such as finance, education, and retail. It is based on a cyber-immune approach, which assumes that security is thought out from the earliest stages of development, at the architecture level. This ensures high resistance even to the most complex cyberattacks.
