How Dell Is Innovating Secure VDI and DaaS Endpoints

Explore how Dell is redefining thin client innovation to strengthen security and simplify endpoint management at Dell Technologies World 2026.

Key takeaways

· Dell is innovating secure, purpose‑built endpoints to help IT leaders reduce risk, simplify operations and scale VDI and DaaS with confidence.

· At Dell Technologies World 2026, Dell showcases how security‑first design thin client solutions and simplified management enable predictable, enterprise‑ready virtual workspaces.

· Expert‑led sessions, demos and labs highlight how IT teams can modernize virtual computing faster with a trusted, end‑to‑end approach.

As cyber risk intensifies, Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) and Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) environments are under increasing pressure. IT decision-makers are expected to deliver secure, high-performance virtual workspaces while simplifying operations and scaling with limited resources. In many environments, success depends on one critical factor: a secure and manageable endpoint strategy.

At Dell Technologies World 2026, Dell is showcasing how purpose-built endpoints, security-first software and simplified management help IT teams secure and scale VDI and DaaS environments with confidence. Through expert‑led sessions, live demonstrations, and hands‑on labs, Dell brings together deep product expertise and real‑world experience to help IT leaders modernize with clarity.

Why endpoint strategy matters for secure VDI

VDI and DaaS promise centralized control. However, when endpoints are not designed for virtual workloads, they can expand the attack surface, create inconsistent user experiences across roles and locations, and add operational complexity through fragmented management tools. Cloud Client Workspace helps to address these challenges with thin client solutions optimized for security, consistency and scale. Drawing on decades of client virtualization experience, Dell continues to evolve its approach to give IT teams greater control, reduce risk, and improve operational efficiency without increasing management overhead.

Explore secure VDI & DaaS endpoint solutions at the Solution Expo

Stop by the Modern Workspace booth to experience how Dell brings devices, operating systems and management together as a complete VDI and DaaS endpoint solution. Dell subject matter experts Rob Gunyon, Senior Systems Engineer in Dell’s Client Solutions Group, and Mike Moser, Product Manager for thin client software, will lead live demonstrations and conversations that connect product capabilities to real‑world IT challenges.

Featured innovations include:

· Dell ThinOS, our security-first thin client OS aligned to Zero Trust principles, now modernized to support broader device compatibility, expanded browser access, and customer-deployed software components without compromising its locked‑down security model. This means you can standardize on secure endpoints while maintaining the flexibility your users need.

· Windows 11 IoT Enterprise on Dell thin clients, offering deployment‑ready options optimized for either Wyse Management Suite in mixed VDI environments or Microsoft Intune for Azure Virtual Desktop and Windows 365 environments. This simplifies rollout and ongoing operations by aligning with your existing infrastructure.

· Dell Pro Micro Thin Client, delivering flexible performance options for modern virtual computing, with multi-display support and versatile connectivity that helps IT standardize and scale with confidence.

Dell experts will be onsite to demonstrate how these solutions help IT teams standardize faster, reduce complexity and improve security posture.

Join our breakout session: Securing and Managing VDI and DaaS Endpoints

IT leaders can dive deeper by attending the breakout session: Securing and Managing VDI/DaaS Endpoints: Are You Ready for What’s Next?

· Session ID 3006P-1: Tuesday, May 19, 12:00–1:00 PM

· Session ID 3006P-2: Wednesday, May 20, 1:30–2:30 PM

With decades of hands‑on experience supporting virtual desktop environments at enterprise scale, Mike Moser will partner with Rob Gunyon to lead this session, focusing on the strategic decisions ITDMs face when modernizing virtual workspaces, including:

· Strengthen security posture and reduce endpoint risk by applying Zero Trust principles that limit attack surface, protect access, and enforce consistent controls across VDI and DaaS environments.

· Simplify day‑to‑day operations and improve IT efficiency with centralized policy enforcement, automation, and visibility that reduce manual effort and operational overhead across on‑premises and cloud deployments.

· Make confident endpoint strategy decisions by aligning the right endpoint patterns to business requirements, enabling IT teams to scale virtual workspaces without introducing complexity or fragmentation.

The session is designed to help IT teams reduce risk, simplify endpoint management and scale VDI and DaaS environments with confidence.

Get hands-on with thin client software

At the Hands-on Lab Zone, attendees can explore Dell ThinOS, Windows 11 IoT Enterprise and Wyse Management Suite through guided, self-paced labs. These demos highlight how Dell streamlines deployment, updates and on-going operations, enabling IT teams to do more with less.
