The rising trend of remote work and the inherent necessity for centralized management of an organization’s IT assets, including applications, data, and endpoints, has accentuated the need for a robust Digital Workspace solution. This solution empowers employees to seamlessly engage with their work, irrespective of their device, location, or time zone. Digital Workspace harnesses the power of technology to amalgamate an enterprise’s digital resources into a singular, virtual hub. This convergence simplifies management through a cloud-based console, while simultaneously providing users with a secure remote access experience, compatible with both company-owned and Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) platforms.

The components of a Digital Workspace are:

• Comprehensive Device Management: The effectiveness of a digital workspace is built on its ability to manage all devices – mobile or desktop – in a unified manner. This uniformity fosters a cohesive user experience irrespective of the device being utilized.
•  Single Sign-On (SSO) Capability: In the realm of digital workspaces, enhanced security is paramount. Single sign-on simplifies the user experience and heightens security by drastically reducing the potential for password misplacement or unauthorized access.
•  Adaptive Application and Desktop Virtualization: Virtualization techniques that extend to applications and user desktops enable users to access their professional ecosystem from any location or device, promoting flexibility and mobility.
•  Efficient Automated Workflows: The inclusion of automated workflows within digital workspaces paves the way for streamlined operations and augmented efficiency.
•  Unhindered Application Access: Digital workspace client apps, accessible as native apps across multiple device platforms or as web-based apps, allow users to readily tap into the resources available within their digital workspace.
•  Advanced Collaboration: By facilitating features such as instant messaging, video conferencing, and file sharing, along with AI-powered capabilities for audio, video, and text summarization, a digital workspace can nurture enhanced, seamless communication and collaboration.
•  Agile Scalability: A digital workspace must be capable of scaling in line with organizational needs, be it accommodating growth or adjusting to shifting business demands. Prompt support for business expansion or restructuring equips the workspace to scale up or down effortlessly, ensuring a fluid and nimble digital work experience.
•  Robust Security Measures: The integrity of a digital workspace is hinged on its ability to shield sensitive data and intellectual property. This can be achieved by integrating advanced security protocols such as data encryption, access control mechanisms, multi-factor authentication, and active threat detection.

Benefits of a Digital Workspace

The advantages of adopting a digital workspace permeate both the individual employee experience and the overarching organizational framework. From the employees’ perspective, it fosters increased productivity, bolsters engagement, and contributes to lower attrition rates. This is due to the flexibility offered by digital workspaces, allowing employees to perform their tasks from any location, utilize their device of choice, and gain streamlined access to essential applications.

On an organizational level, the digital workspace model presents many benefits. It provides an avenue to improve customer service and introduce technology-agnostic solutions, all while reinforcing security measures and curtailing operational costs. The inherent flexibility of digital workspaces facilitates the integration of contemporary technologies without sacrificing either user experience or enterprise-grade security. Additionally, these digital platforms offer superior network traffic visibility, an invaluable asset in identifying and mitigating potential security threats early.

What is BUFFERZONE® Safe Workspace™

BUFFERZONE Safe Workspace™ is a suite of prevention capabilities based on application isolation technology that includes Safe Browsing, SafeBridge® (Content Disarm and Reconstruction capabilities), and Safe Removable (USB attack prevention), all combined with clipboard security. Safe Workspace™ virtual container is created by a kernel driver, which virtually separates the operating system into two logical zones. The first zone is the trusted zone, which is connected to all the organization’s networks and the operating system’s files. The second zone is called the untrusted zone, which acts as a buffer zone where different applications can securely run isolated from the trusted zone’s memory, files, registry, and processes. This method offers advantages such as low CPU and memory footprint, high quality of experience, and the ability to seamlessly work inside the virtual container without noticing that you are protected from browsing and USB threats. BUFFERZONE® is the only virtual containment solution that works based on six patented technologies.

By using an advanced isolation solution, the organization’s content is secure. Downloaded attachments are isolated, while antivirus and EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) solutions can always scan the untrusted virtual zone. The virtual environment can be cleaned in one click, eliminating any malicious traces. Ransomware will not be able to run and attack the endpoint.

Benefits of Digital Workspace + Safe Workspace™

BUFFERZONE Safe Workspace provides a comprehensive security solution that insulates your browsing activities, email links, attachments, and removable storage, forming a protective layer against external threats. This isolation technique fortifies your trusted zone, ensuring its safety and integrity.

What makes BUFFERZONE’s trusted zone unique is its ability to securely connect to your Digital Workspace while simultaneously isolating external threats. This dual function prevents any possibility of your Digital Workspace being compromised or tainted by potential attacks. Thus, it remains impartial and invulnerable, facilitating secure and seamless operations.
