Secureframe Virtual Desktops
Instantly access CUI using secure virtual desktops.
Secureframe Virtual Desktops are CMMC-compliant virtual machines that teams can use to securely access CUI. Provisioned in Azure Government in minutes, Virtual Desktops eliminate the operational complexity of meeting and maintaining CMMC Level 2 technical requirements on physical hardware.
Reduce your CMMC assessment
scope and costs in minutes
Limiting CUI flow and scope creep
Any device, system, or vendor that may handle CUI falls within CMMC assessment scope. This forces organizations to either stand up their own government virtual desktop environment or apply CMMC controls to their current laptops and workstations. Both options are highly complex, expensive, and time-intensive.
Cannot use current devices to access CUI
Understanding the required CMMC controls to enforce on CUI-handling devices requires subject matter expertise. Using a consultant to implement controls across your current fleet of laptops and workstations could cost months, thousands of dollars, and leave you responsible for keeping them compliant.
CMMC-compliant workspaces
With Secureframe Virtual Desktops, users can spin up secure, isolated workspaces in Azure Government in minutes. These ready-to-use, compliant workspaces allow employees and subcontractors to handle CUI securely without needing to manage physical hardware, rebuild their IT environment, or depend on consultants.
How Secureframe Virtual Desktops works
Secureframe Virtual Desktops create secure, isolated Windows environments where users can securely access CUI. By using a Secureframe virtual desktop, local endpoints and corporate networks are removed from CMMC assessment scope.
Secureframe Virtual Desktops is for
DIB organizations without the in-house resources to build and manage compliant virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI)
Teams that need an out-of-the-box solution to meet CMMC Level 2 requirements without disrupting their workflows
Primes, subcontractors, and MSPs that want to keep CUI activities clearly separated from non-CUI operations
Benefits of Secureframe Virtual Desktops
Scope reduction
By isolating CUI access to virtual desktops, you remove local endpoints and local networks from your CMMC assessment scope.
Instant provisioning
Spin up secure, compliant virtual desktops for company employees or subcontractors in minutes.
Seamless user experience
Users get a familiar Windows 11 desktop experience that’s accessible from any browser or device, so there’s no learning curve for virtual desktops.
Automated enforcement
The necessary logging, antivirus, and session timeout policies required by NIST 800-171 are automatically enforced on every virtual desktop.
Using virtual desktops allows you to access CUI from an isolated workspace, removing your underlying laptops and workstations from CMMC scope. I recommend to all of our customers to reduce CMMC scope where possible, and using virtual desktops is one of the most effective and cost efficient ways of doing so.
What’s next?
Secureframe Virtual Desktops is a core capability within Secureframe Defense, where DIB organizations can manage the infrastructure, controls, and evidence they need to achieve and maintain CMMC readiness in one system.
