Mike Mestrovich, senior technology officer for innovation at the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), says DIA will move to desktop virtualization based on Citrix Xen, Intel vPro and Microsoft technologies.  Mestrovich told InformationWeek that a pilot program showed that desktop virtualization will both improve security and reduce the cost of managing DIA’s desktops. Unlike earlier thin-client technology, DIA’s desktop virtualization infrastructure can handle graphically demanding applications for DIA employees, Mestrovich told Federal Computer Week.
