RingCube and MXI Security™ Partner to Deliver a virtual Desktop on the hardware-encrypted Stealth MXP™ Biometric USB Drive
July 2008 by Marc Jacob
RingCube Technologies partner to deliver MojoPac Enterprise on MXI Security’s Stealth MXP Biometric USB drives. The integrated mobile virtual desktop solution enables users to securely carry their entire desktop environment including applications, files and settings on a portable USB drive and access it from any PC – at work, home, at a customer site or on a public computer — online or offline. MXI Security USB portable security devices ensure that RingCube’s high performance virtual workspaces are protected by the highest 2-factor biometric user authentication and the strongest AES 256-bit hardware encryption to prevent data leakage and unauthorized access.
RingCube’s award-winning MojoPac virtualization technology separates a user’s desktop environment, including applications, data, settings and system resources, from the operating system and encapsulates it into a secure container. Users can run their managed virtual workspace on unmanaged, non-corporate PCs – at home, at a client site or in a hotel business center. By plugging their MojoPac-enabled USB portable security device into a host PC, mobile professionals can transform any Windows PC into their own familiar and personalized workspace to access their files, applications, settings and entire desktop, as if they were on their own PC. Before allowing the user to launch their workspace, MojoPac verifies the security of the system based on administrator-defined policies. For administrators, RingCube provides an Administration Server that makes creating, deploying and managing virtual desktop environments easy and less costly.
Enterprise companies can provide drives to employees, contractors or customers that are pre-provisioned with the user’s workspace or let them self-provision their workspace from RingCube’s web-based Client Portal. To launch the MojoPac workspace, users simply plug-in their MXI Security USB portable security device into any PC, swipe their finger across the biometric reader, and then will be automatically logged-in to their MojoPac workspace. Once logged in, users have access to their personalized applications, files, settings and desktop environment.
MXI Security USB portable security devices provide secure portable storage that includes biometric authentication and AES 256-bit hardware encryption for MojoPac Enterprise workspaces. MXI Security Biometric USB portable security devices are available immediately in either a USB Flash Drive or USB Hard Drive. Stealth MXP™ is a fully manageable FIPS 140-2 Level 2 validated USB device that protects up to 8 gigabytes of data with AES 256-bit hardware encryption and strong authentication (biometric, password or both). Stealth MXP delivers strong authentication for network logins/SSO, remote access and full disk encryption with total portability.
Outbacker MXP™ protects up to 120 gigabytes of data with AES 256-bit hardware encryption with strong user authentication and supports digital identity functions with complete portability and simplicity. Outbacker MXP is a fully manageable hard disk drive device ideally suited for organizations that need high capacities for portable data or portable desktop and OS environments.
