New scenario: Windows 10 brings changes to enterprise users

The long-awaited Windows 10 will be officially released on July 29. The Enterprise Edition is naturally indispensable. As reported before, after comprehensive testing, most IT companies plan to change their OS to Windows 10, and the free upgrade of Windows 10 provides support for the change of OS.

The release of Windows 10 also marks the first step for Windows to move towards personalized computing. Windows 10 will also usher in a new era of seamless cross-platform collaboration and synchronization!

Microsoft executive Kevin Gallo said: Windows 10 is the culmination of Microsoft's platform convergence journey, which allows one application to run on all Windows platforms - the phone in your pocket, the tablet or laptop in your bag, the PC on your desk, and the Xbox game console in your living room. There are also a variety of new devices that are constantly increasing in the Windows family, including HoloLens, Surface Hub, and IoT devices such as Raspberry Pi 2.

So, what new scenarios can Windows 10 provide for enterprise users? Can people’s working mode change because of Windows 10?

First: Microsoft wants to achieve a unified OS. Since Windows 10 achieves seamless connectivity between computers, tablets, and mobile phones, it also means that a unified OS is about to take shape. Running a single operating system across the entire enterprise can bring direct security advantages, including simplified device management and reduced overall attack surface.

In this way, not only can work efficiency be improved, but Windows 10 also provides users with advantages in terms of enterprise information security.

Second: The mid-life crisis of information security can be avoided. At the CIO Summit hosted by CDM Media, Tsion Gonen, Chief Strategy Officer of SafeNet, delivered a keynote speech titled "The Mid-Life Crisis of Information Security and Your Future." He clearly stated: We are losing this war; companies should change the way they deal with security issues.

Windows 10's new features for enhanced authentication and data protection are attractive to businesses that want to eliminate the use of passwords and protect data in the BYOD era.

Third: Ease of use is not only reflected in the return of the "Start" menu bar. Another important feature of Windows 10 is what Microsoft calls the "Universal App" platform. Windows 10 can help developers easily create applications that can run on any Windows device, regardless of whether the device equipped with this operating system is a smartphone or a PC.

In the past, software developers usually needed to program different software for different devices. But now, all kinds of devices can be handled with just a little effort.

The Enterprise edition builds on the Professional edition (Windows 10 Enterprise) and adds advanced capabilities used by midsize and large organizations to combat modern security threats to devices, identities, apps, and sensitive corporate information.

It will also be available to Microsoft's volume licensing customers (as an existing Software Assurance benefit, and as an upgrade for Active Software Assurance customers), who can also choose the steps to adopt the new technology, including using Windows Update for Enterprise. Windows 10 Enterprise will offer the long-term servicing branch as a deployment option.

In addition, Microsoft will also release Windows 10 Mobile Enterprise.

The platform for this new mobile experience not only needs to support a variety of screen sizes, but also provide flexible interaction modes, including touch screen, mouse and keyboard, joystick and stylus. When users use their various devices, they often quickly switch from touch gestures to keyboard and mouse to work.

Nadella said that one of Microsoft's ultimate goals is to connect all platforms. Windows 10 can run on any device. PCs, tablets, mobile phones, Xbox and other platforms all use one platform and one app store, which is seamlessly connected. In particular, tablets and mobile phones can still use the same applications as PCs and Xbox.

In addition, Microsoft is preparing to provide a full version of the universal Office family office suite, providing a consistent experience for Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote and Outlook on mobile phones, tablets and PCs.

The synchronization of the universal Office suite with the three major platforms of Windows 10 will surely be "invincible", greatly improving the efficiency and usability of corporate office work and successfully adding value to the enterprise.
