A new version of the Kaspersky Thin Client is presented

Kaspersky presented an updated operating system for thin clients

Kaspersky Thin Client 2.0 was officially presented at the first international Cyber Immunity Conference in Dubai.A new version of the product offers enhanced connectivity, higher speed of applications delivery, lower total cost of ownership, user-friendly graphical interface and quick deployment. Kaspersky Thin Client (KTC) is the main component of the Cyber Immune solution for building thin client infrastructure in a wide range of industries, including healthcare, finance, education and manufacturing.

Kaspersky Thin Client 2.0 helps ensure effective security for companies with extensive branch networks and geographically distributed business infrastructure. This includes organizations in finance, healthcare, and education, as well as government institutions, transportation, and industrial enterprises. The solution is also suitable for building smart city infrastructure and enabling industrial automation.

KTC 2.0 functionality has been significantly updated in the fields of connectivity, performance and usability.

Enhanced connectivity

Kaspersky Thin Client 2.0 offers new remote connection methods. The Web Access application allows users to connect to remote environments deployed on Citrix Workspace platform and VMware Horizon infrastructure using HTML5 technology. Also, KTC 2.0 supports connection to individual business applications that are deployed on Microsoft Remote Desktop Services infrastructure, Windows Server and terminal servers running on Windows 10/11.

Better performance

Performance improvements feature a higher speed of applications delivery to remote desktop, shorter reboot time, and higher update speed thanks to the compact OS image size. The deployment time of KTC 2.0 through automatic connection is about two minutes.

Usability and design

Kaspersky Thin Client 2.0 has been improved in usability and got new features. The product now supports audio conferences and has a new function of printing documents from a guest operating system.
If the connection is unexpectedly interrupted, KTC 2.0 automatically reconnects to the remote desktop without requiring additional actions from the users. At the same time, the notification system is updated, and error messages provide useful information with troubleshooting tips. Additionally, the connection panel in the remote environment is redesigned, with new animated elements added in various scenarios, as well as the possibility of interface customization.

Kaspersky Thin Client 2.0 was the most eagerly awaited release in recent years. This is because we were able to significantly improve the user experience by adding the ability to print from the user’s virtual environment to a printer connected to the thin client, and to broadcast sound from the user’s virtual environment and back. Now our thin client is not only slim, but also audible! We have substantially expanded the capabilities of the thin client in the most popular VDIs, allowing you to use Kaspersky Thin Client in an already established infrastructure. You can now connect to Citrix Workspace, VMware Horizon and Microsoft RDS. Importantly, the new version also introduces the ability to use the user’s local peripherals in a remote Linux environment.
