The Future of Secure, Flexible Workspaces

In today’s dynamic work environment, businesses need flexible, secure solutions that allow employees to work efficiently from anywhere. Microsoft 365 Business Premium offers advanced Windows and Virtual Desktop solutions that provide your team with consistent and secure access to their workspaces, whether they’re in the office, at home, or on the go. These tools enable businesses to manage and secure desktops centrally, reduce IT overhead, and support remote work with ease.

Windows 10/11 Enterprise: The Foundation of a Modern Workspace

Microsoft 365 Business Premium includes Windows 10/11 Enterprise, providing your business with a robust, secure, and feature-rich operating system that meets the demands of modern work environments.

• Enterprise-Grade Security: Windows 10/11 Enterprise includes advanced security features such as BitLocker encryption, Windows Defender Antivirus, and Windows Hello for Business, which provides biometric security options like fingerprint and facial recognition. These features help protect your devices and data against the latest threats.

• Optimised Performance: Designed for business, Windows 10/11 Enterprise offers enhanced performance features such as faster boot times, improved battery life, and streamlined system updates, ensuring that your team stays productive without interruption.

• Universal Compatibility: Windows 10/11 Enterprise supports a wide range of business applications, both legacy and modern, ensuring that your existing software investments are protected while you take advantage of new technologies.

Windows Autopilot: Simplified Device Deployment

Deploying and configuring devices can be a time-consuming process, but with Windows Autopilot, included in Microsoft 365 Business Premium, you can streamline this process, making it faster and easier to get new devices up and running.

• Zero-Touch Provisioning: With Windows Autopilot, new devices can be shipped directly to employees. Once powered on and connected to the internet, devices are automatically configured according to your company’s policies, apps, and settings, reducing the need for IT intervention.

• Customised User Experiences: Tailor the setup process for different roles within your organisation. Whether setting up a device for a new employee or reconfiguring it for a different role, Autopilot ensures that users get the right tools and access from day one.

• Ongoing Management: Windows Autopilot integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Intune, allowing you to manage and update devices remotely, ensuring that they remain compliant with your security and operational standards.

Windows Virtual Desktop: Your Office, Anywhere

Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD), now known as Azure Virtual Desktop, is a comprehensive desktop and application virtualisation service that runs in the Azure cloud. It provides your team with a secure, scalable, and cost-effective solution to access a full Windows desktop experience from any device.

• Full Windows Experience on Any Device: With Windows Virtual Desktop, your employees can access a fully functional Windows desktop, complete with all their apps and data, from any internet-connected device. Whether using a PC, Mac, tablet, or smartphone, they can work with the same interface and capabilities they have in the office.

• Enhanced Security and Compliance: Because Windows Virtual Desktop runs in Azure, your data and applications are stored in the cloud, not on local devices. This reduces the risk of data breaches and ensures compliance with industry regulations. Additionally, WVD supports multi-session Windows 10/11, allowing multiple users to share the same virtual machine, reducing costs while maintaining security.

• Scalability and Flexibility: Windows Virtual Desktop can scale up or down according to your business needs. Whether you need to support a sudden influx of remote workers or scale back during quieter periods, WVD provides the flexibility to adjust resources as needed.

• Cost-Effective Licensing: WVD is included with Microsoft 365 Business Premium, making it a cost-effective solution for businesses looking to deploy virtual desktops without the need for additional licensing fees.

Centralised Management with Intune

Managing physical and virtual desktops across your organisation is simplified with Microsoft Intune, a cloud-based management solution included in Microsoft 365 Business Premium.

• Unified Management: With Intune, you can manage both physical devices and virtual desktops from a single console. This unified approach simplifies IT management, reduces overhead, and ensures that all devices comply with your security and operational policies.

• Security and Compliance Policies: Apply and enforce security policies across all devices, whether they’re on-premises or virtual. Intune’s powerful tools allow you to manage access, enforce encryption, and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.

• Remote Support and Troubleshooting: Provide remote support and troubleshoot issues quickly, no matter where your employees are located. Intune’s remote management capabilities allow your IT team to resolve problems without needing physical access to devices.

Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery

With Windows and Virtual Desktop solutions in Microsoft 365 Business Premium, you can ensure that your business remains operational even during unexpected disruptions.

• Data Backup and Recovery: Windows Virtual Desktop integrates with Azure Backup, providing automatic backup and recovery options to protect your business-critical data. In the event of hardware failure or a cyberattack, you can quickly restore operations with minimal downtime.

• Disaster Recovery Solutions: Azure’s global infrastructure ensures that your virtual desktops can be accessed from anywhere, even if your primary office location is compromised. This makes WVD an essential component of your business continuity and disaster recovery planning.
