aDesk integration

How does Sangfor aDesk integrate with other Sangfor products to provide a comprehensive security solution?

Sangfor aDesk integrates seamlessly with other Sangfor products, such as the NGAF (Next-Generation Firewall), HCI (Hyper-Converged Infrastructure), and NGIPS (Next-Generation Intrusion Prevention System), to provide a comprehensive security solution. This integration enables centralized management, policy enforcement, and threat intelligence sharing across the entire network. The NGAF acts as a unified threat management platform, combining firewall, VPN, and IPS functions. HCI provides a secure virtualization platform, ensuring data protection and efficient resource utilization. NGIPS detects and prevents advanced threats, while aDesk offers secure remote access. By working together, these products deliver a holistic security approach, safeguarding the network, data, and remote users from various threats and vulnerabilities.

aDesk or VDI in other words, has the capacity to integrate with almost all the sangfor technologies which can make it better, it can integrate with IAM for authentication pruposes, with NGAF, and also can be a part of HCI solution as well.

Sangfor aDesk seamlessly integrates with other Sangfor products to deliver a comprehensive security solution by leveraging a unified management platform and sharing threat intelligence. Through integration with Sangfor security products such as Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFW), Secure Web Gateway (SWG), and Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems, aDesk benefits from enhanced visibility and control over network traffic and user activities. This integration enables centralized policy enforcement, threat detection, and response, facilitating coordinated security measures across the entire IT infrastructure.

Sangfor aDesk is a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) solution that can integrate with:
Sangfor NGAF - next-generation firewall and web application firewall that can provide secure and reliable network;
Sangfor IAM - an internet access management solution;
Sangfor HCI - hyper-converged infrastructure solution that can host the virtual desktop platform and provide high performance, scalability, and simplicity;
Sangfor Cyber Command - network detection and response (NDR) solution that can integrate with Sangfor aDesk to provide real-time visibility and threat detection for the virtual desktop network.

Sangfor aDesk, the Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) solution, integrates seamlessly with other Sangfor products to offer a comprehensive security solution across various aspects of your IT infrastructure. Here's how some key integrations contribute to overall security:

1. Sangfor NGAF (Next-Generation Application Firewall):

    Network Access Control (NAC): Integrates with aDesk to restrict network access to authorized devices and users, preventing unauthorized access attempts even if credentials are compromised.
    Intrusion Prevention System (IPS): Blocks malicious traffic and network attacks at the perimeter, protecting the aDesk environment from external threats.
    Data Loss Prevention (DLP): Enforces policies to prevent unauthorized data exfiltration from the VDI environment, complementing endpoint security measures.

2. Sangfor Endpoint Security and Anti-Virus (SEG):

    Integrates with aDesk to enforce security policies on user devices accessing the VDI environment, providing protection against malware, viruses, and other threats.
    Utilizes Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) capabilities to detect and respond to potential threats within the VDI environment.

3. Sangfor IAM (Identity and Access Management):

    Provides centralized user authentication and authorization across various Sangfor products, including aDesk, simplifying user management and enhancing access control.
    Enables features like Single Sign-On (SSO), allowing users to access multiple Sangfor products with a single login, reducing the risk of password fatigue and misuse.

4. Sangfor Cyber Command Platform (SCC):

    Acts as a central platform for managing and monitoring security across all integrated Sangfor products, including aDesk.
    Provides real-time threat visibility, incident management capabilities, and automated responses to security events, streamlining security operations.

These integrations create a cohesive security ecosystem, where different Sangfor products work together to provide:

    Multi-layered defense: Protects against threats at various entry points, from the network perimeter to user devices and the VDI environment itself.
    Centralized management and visibility: Simplifies security management by providing a unified platform for monitoring and controlling security across different solutions.
    Automated response and remediation: Enables automated actions to contain threats and minimize damage in case of security incidents.

Sangfor aDesk integrates with other Sangfor products to create a more comprehensive security solution by taking advantage of their combined functionalities. Here are some of the key integrations:

1. Sangfor NGAF
- NGAF acts as the first line of defense, filtering network traffic and blocking malicious activities before they reach aDesk environment which includes features like intrusion detection/prevention, web filtering, and malware protection
- integration with NGAF allows SSO or Single Sign On, enabling users to access both aDesk and other resources protected by Sangfor NGAF using a single set of credentials.
2. Sangfor Endpoint Protection (SEP)
- SEP secures the user devices accessing the aDesk environment. This provides features like antivirus, application control, device control, and vulnerability scanning which ensures that the devices themselves are not compromised and protecting the remote PCs
3. Sangfor Identity and Access Management (IAM)
- IAM offers a centralized platform to manage user identities, access privileges, and authentication policies for various Sangfor products, including aDesk to simplify user management and ensures consistency on security policies across different applications
4. Sangfor Web Application Firewall (WAF)
- if aDesk is used to access web applications, integration with WAF provides an additional layer of security by protecting against web based threats and vulnerabilities specific to those applications
5. Sangfor Cloud Security Platform (CSP)
- it offers a centralized platform to manage and monitor the security posture of various Sangfor products, including aDesk which provides a unified view of security events and facilitates comprehensive threat detection and response.
