Secure thin clients for unified endpoint management
ThinKiosk installs on any device operating with Windows OS. It creates a secure, isolated shell that leverages Windows, but crucially blocks user-access to the underlying OS.
IT teams can then configure and enforce a strict security policy on each device, as well as push patches and updates for applications, firewalls, firmware, etc.
Key features
Locks down endpoints, restricting OS access
Role-based admin for strict access controls
Unified endpoint management at scale
Customizable workspace UI & branding
Software-defined: no device purchase or OS wipe needed
Simplify day-to-day IT tasks to reduce workload
How does ThinKiosk work?
ThinScale’s ThinKiosk installs on any supported Windows operating system and creates a new, isolated secure shell that blocks the underlying OS.
ThinKiosk enforces its own security policy (configurable by your IT team) and ensures that the devices are secure and compliant.
Anti-malware features, data leakage prevention, and authenticator integration align with best practices for Data Loss Prevention (DLP).
ThinScale Management Platform provides a unified view of each endpoint, with the ability to control, update and perform in-depth audits.
All data created during the secure session is saved to a hidden, bit-locker encrypted temporary drive that cannot be read by unapproved processes.
External USB storage devices can be blocked without stopping the use of other USB devices such as headphones or keyboards.
“It used to take an hour and a half to configure a thin client with HP, but with ThinKiosk it takes about 2 minutes, even if you have the write filter enabled”.
