January 12, 2011

Teradici Corporation, the developer of the innovative PC-over-IP¬Æ (PCoIP¬Æ)  protocol that enables a true PC experience for desktop virtualization, today announced a strategic investment and development agreement from In-Q-Tel (IQT), the strategic investment firm that identifies innovative technology solutions to support the missions of the U.S. Intelligence Community.

‍

Teradici PCoIP protocol is an innovative remote display technology that allows the user's desktop operating system, applications, and data to reside in the datacenter, eliminating the need for traditional desktop workstations, PCs and thin clients, and delivers an uncompromised user experience to each person, anywhere, without incurring the security risks associated with having data reside in remote PCs. PCoIP technology provides high resolution, full frame rate 3D graphics and high-definition media, with full USB peripheral interoperability, locally over a LAN or remotely over a high-latency WAN. It compresses, encrypts and encodes the entire computing experience at the datacenter and transmits it 'pixels only' across a standard IP network to secure, stateless PCoIP zero clients, thin clients, and mobile devices.

‍

The protocol is implemented in silicon for hardware accelerated performance and enhanced security, as well as in several software configurations, including VMware View‚Ñ¢, the industry leading desktop virtualization platform. A growing ecosystem of over 25 third-party vendors provide a wide variety of PCoIP products including server plug-in cards, rack and tower workstations, blade PCs, zero clients, integrated monitors, and IP phones with added PCoIP capability.

‍

"Teradici is an important addition to our strategic investment portfolio," said William Strecker, Executive Vice President of Architecture & Engineering and CTO of IQT. "The company's PC-over-IP technology has the potential to provide exciting new desktop virtualization capabilities for our Intelligence Community customers."

"We are delighted to have IQT as a strategic investor and partner," said Dan Cordingley, CEO of Teradici. "Working closely with IQT will offer additional opportunities to enhance our technology in support of the U.S. Intelligence Community."
