- Secure remote accesses with encryption, plus ensuring patches are always current.
- All CLI thin clients are available with internal wireless and smart card options.

Clouds v.s. Rights, Obligations, and Liabilities
The pervasive shift to cloud computing will precipitate a morass of legal questions, as well as government and regulatory scrutiny. The cloud will test the current rights, obligations and liabilities of service providers and their partners, businesses and consumers. The debate will play out around three key issues, encompassing multiple sub issues. These issues are as follows:
1. Privacy protection: The protection of personal information and the confidentiality of sensitive business data are central concerns in the current online world. Individual and company assessment of the risks and safeguards surrounding both types of information will be central in shaping the cloud and its attractiveness. Unauthorized access to, or disclosure of, data residing in clouds and its inappropriate use are key topics of debate. At present, this debate raises more legal questions than answers.
2. Data protection: Compliance with electronic communications and industry sector-related laws having to do with data security and storage are also mission-critical to the prospects of clouds. When data is handed over to third parties that have multiple other third-party arrangements, questions about who owns and controls the data and who is liable for misuse or a data breach come to the fore.
3. Jurisdiction: An overarching factor in the debate relates to jurisdiction and differing applicable national laws based on the physical location of cloud users, service providers, and infrastructure or housed data. This issue is extremely complicated in a cloud context, where data may be transferred across servers in multiple nations and a customer is simply unaware of traffic flows.
