vmSight Releases User Activity Control for VDI

(Full press release here)

Blocks unauthorized user activity on virtual desktops with patented Connector ID technology

"vmSight now includes a unique 'call blocking' feature that halts unauthorized user activity on virtual desktops," said Jonathan Alexander, president and co-founder of vmSight. "With this release, vmSight moves beyond monitoring to control. This added functionality delivers yet another way for customers and Desktops-as-a-Service (DaaS) providers to increase the manageability of virtual desktops while decreasing administrative costs."

vmSight's patented Connector ID technology facilitates the new activity control functionality in release 3.5. Similar to the caller ID capability prevalent in today's phone networks, vmSight's Connector ID enables virtual desktops and thin clients with a user identification and tracking capability. Using this technology, vmSight is the only solution of its kind with the ability to monitor users and prevent unauthorized application activity for performance or security purposes. Administrators can identify the specific virtual desktop and applications accessed by a user at any given time, and can track, control and optimize user activity and performance end-to-end.
