Comment on Forcing Workers Back to the Office Might Not Have Been a Good Idea After All
TipRing@lemmy.world 10 months agoIf you use vdi that runs on a corporate thin client security is basically a non-issue. Data never leaves the data center and so long as you harden the thin client it should be difficult to breach it.

It’s also about physical security, protecting access to your work laptop and protecting IP. That VPN is completely useless if someone can get into your home and access your device. It’s way easier to get into someone’s home than into a properly secured office.

Right… that’s why you would use a VDI. There’s nothing local except a thin client that runs your citrix/vmware/whatever client. There’s a reason that VDI is generally used for PCI-compliant business cases but VPN is not.
