JentüRemote is a low latency remote desktop access portal and partner product to the JentüPlatform storage network environment. If you want to learn about the driving force behind an ironclad secure network, please visit the Jentü product page.
In short, a Jentü network, driven by a Jentü server, is a diskless network offering unparalleled security against any bad actor, malware and ransomware attacks.
Let’s assume you understand the principle behind, and benefits of, a Jentü network. Since it’s likely your team is not all in one location or on-site at all, we need to address your remote workers and traveling employees.
Today’s reality is your team needs the ability to work from anywhere it’s needed. JentüRemote was built with this reality in mind. The future is here. It’s a fragmented workforce operating in a disaggregated corporate structure.
JentüRemote is built with the fundamental principles of the Jentü platform – without compromise. JentüRemote, like the Jentü platform, prioritizes network security and speed at all times, which your organization needs to function securely and efficiently from anywhere in the world.
A bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policy, with mandatory privacy eroding apps installed on users’ personal devices, means that these users give up a certain degree of privacy and performance. Your IT team is never quite sure that these devices are not compromised. In the JentüRemote model, this conversation is ended and nobody needs to give up anything to secure your corporation.
With JentüRemote, your users are free to use whichever device they choose, so long as it is HTML5 compliant. You can rest easy in the knowledge that their data and your network is protected. No data will traverse the wire. Everything they touch will be held within your safe environment. If they damage their corporate OS, they need only reboot that machine to repair their session.

Data At Rest and Data Loss Prevention (DLP)
Here’s a great example of why it’s a good idea not to take your data with you.
We have all heard tales of classified documents being lost on a laptop.
Here’s a few examples:
“Defence minister’s laptop stolen”
“MoD loses £600,000 of laptops in two years”
“History of recent data blunders by government”
Such high profile cases are not limited to Departments of Defence and other special branches of governments or corporations. Laptops are lost or stolen every single day and with them their data.
In recent years there has been a concerted effort to thwart penetration of data held on laptops with whole disk encryption, two-factor authentication and passcode enabled access at boot time. But these are solutions to a problem you should never have.
What if there was never any data on the laptop? What if the laptop you used to travel with had no sensitive information but instead was a dumb terminal connected to a remote location where the coveted prize was held secured, at rest, out of harms way? That is JentüRemote.
Your remote employees or traveling executives are now absolved of any risk associated with hardware loss. Instead they access their desktop via a zero-lag connection over any browser. There are no discernible shortcomings to managing remote individuals in this way.
JentüRemote users:
- Enjoy a zero lag remote experience
- Are only limited by the speed of their internet connection
- Can access and run any application in real time from anywhere in the world
- Have the exact same experience they would have if they were at the office
- Can still print locally
- Can still watch or listen to their media
- Can still run demanding programs like AutoCAD or video editing software.
With JentüRemote, your data never leaves your organization’s network. It is always safe harbored, unable to be tainted by bad actors sitting on unsecured wireless networks or hidden in cheap USB drives and charging cables.
Furthermore, JentüRemote also works with cell phones and tablets, enabling a secondary tool in case of loss or damage.
“Every once in a while, a new technology, an old problem, and a big idea turn into an innovation.”
Dean Kamen
