Computer systems, computer implemented methods and computer executable code configured to provide secure PC solutions based on a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), including IPTV via VDI

Abstract:

The present invention relates to computer systems, computer implemented methods and computer executable code configured to provide secure PC solutions based on a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) including IPTV via VDI to secure locations such as prison cells. The invention is embodied in a networked system that provides a plurality of virtual machines that are hosted in a Virtual Environment, with data stored in a shared Storage Area Network (SAN). Secure application streaming technology is applied as a broker to deliver a secure user experience to the end users. The solution is based on providing a complete end-to-end solution delivering published apps to users on in-cell devices. The system is configured to provide functionalities including: (i) streaming of TV services to the cells via IPTV; and (ii) eLearning via the VDI environment.
