To address the urgent challenge of IP exfiltration in VDI, this manufacturing company implemented a solution to secure sensitive design files by managing print and screen actions.
A manufacturing company relies heavily on its Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) to provide employees with remote access to design files, manufacturing processes, and other sensitive intellectual property (IP). This distributed access creates a significant security risk, as employees could potentially leak sensitive data through unauthorized printing or screen captures. The company needs to maintain strict control over its IP to prevent competitive disadvantage and ensure regulatory compliance, while also enabling employee productivity within the VDI environment. Traditional VDI security often lacks granular control over actions like printing and screen capture, leaving vulnerabilities.
The manufacturing company implemented a data-centric security layer within its VDI environment by deploying Fasoo’s endpoint protection solutions, providing granular control over sensitive data and actively preventing unauthorized data exfiltration through both printing and screen captures. This was achieved by enforcing strict policies defining access, print, and view permissions for sensitive information, controlling output by applying watermarks and security markings to documents and screens, blocking unauthorized actions such as screen captures, recordings, and printing to unapproved devices, and providing comprehensive audits that log all printing and screen activity for tracking and compliance. This integrated approach secures sensitive IP by managing its handling and viewing within the VDI, effectively mitigating data leakage risks. Fasoo Smart Print and Fasoo Smart Screen work together to create a comprehensive data-centric security layer within the VDI, ensuring sensitive IP protection regardless of employee access location.
Fasoo Smart Print enforces secure printing policies within the VDI environment. It allows administrators to:
Fasoo Smart Screen prevents unauthorized screen captures and recordings within the VDI sessions. It enables:
