Introduction
Thin clients running Dell Wyse ThinOS firmware are designed solely for optimal thin client security and performance. These
efficient purpose-built thin clients are virus and malware resistant and offer ultrafast access to applications, files and network
resources within Citrix, Microsoft, VMware and Dell vWorkspace environments, and other leading infrastructures. ThinOS based
thin clients are self-managed, go from power-on to fully productive in seconds, and with no published API, locally accessible file
system or browser, require no local McAfee Anti-Virus software or firewall to protect against viruses or malware.
