Background
Secom Trust Systems Co., Ltd. is responsible for the core of the BPO.ICT business of the Secom Group. We make themost effective use of our technology and service capacities to provide “safety and security” fostered by the systemconstruction/application of the Secom Group 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and have also developed a complete
services business by treating information security and largescale disaster policies as central matters. We constantly
strive to meet the changing business demands, such as by providing concrete solutions through our consulting
service for the increasingly complicated threats of net companies and by handling BCP (Business Continuity Plan).
To meet high-level security demands, the Secom Group developed the “Secom Group 2030 Vision” and makesevery effort to implement the “Security Platform” plan. To do so, Secom Trust Systems Co., Ltd. considers thesettlement of company infrastructure under security operations as an urgent mission.
The Secom Group has already developed a VDI environment, different environments also need to be developed,
rather than a unified environment, in order to diversify risks in case of damage. The Remote PC Array is a good
option for this situation. In a remote PC array (RPA), 20 physical PC cartridges are mounted in a 1U housing, creating
an all-in-one solution that provides all of the necessary CPU, memory, storage (SSD), network switch, andmanagement software to a virtual desktop. With a physical PC for remote connection, no hypervisor is required.
This setup will dramatically decrease the cost of the infrastructure part, as well as the design and construction
period. Furthermore, in case the hardware runs into trouble, maintenance can be easily done. The hot swap can beapplied by removing the concerned cartridge without unnecessarily stopping the operation of other computers.
To expand capacity, additions can be made per one chassis unit, and 1U (Physical PC x 20) unit can be performed
for several users.

Secom Trust Systems Co., Ltd. has proceeded with the examination of Remote PC Array as potential solution with alow cost, short-term design/installation period, and stable performance, which has led to the use of 7,700
computers (385 chassis) and the large-scale development of the Secom Group.

Advantages of the Remote PC Array Case Study

Established August 1985

For Secom Trust Systems Co., Ltd., the advantages of installing the Remote PC Array are listed below:Address● Low cost
The Remote PC Array is a potential solution with low-cost installation, so we initiated it at Secom Trust Systems Co.,
Ltd. within our budget.

Secom Headquarters Bldg.
4F 1-5-1Jingumae, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo

https://www.secomtrust.net/● Stable performance without impacting other terminals
The remote can directly connect to separate desktop environments stored within the unit, so that each one cangain such resources as CPU, memory, HDD, etc.
● Low failure rate
7,700 computers (385 chassis) have been installed for more than 1 year, with an average failure rate below 0.02%.
● Short Delivery
If an ordinary VDI is developed on a large scale, an installation time of about 8~12 months is required. However,this time, it was completed in about 1 month.

Difficulties in Installation“The most difficult part of installing the Remote PC Array is the separate terminal setup. First, it must be directly
connected to the Console to set up individual terminals. However, this takes time, so our company has created ascript to automatically change terminal names from the management aspect. Performing this script means thatthe setup can be done comfortably. Furthermore, the bulk Remote PC Array has safely been handed over todifferent departments in a short period of time” (Office Work Service Headquarters System Engineering
Department, the 1st System Group Manager of System Engineers Mr. Hasegawa).

Toward the Future“The degree of satisfaction regarding performance of end users is high, and its stable operation has also beenhighly evaluated. Furthermore, it not only has the advantage of low cost but also that of flexibly handling yourcompany’s demands. We will increase the number of Remote PC Arrays when replacing VDI in the near future”(Office Work Service Headquarters System Engineering Department Deputy Manager Mr. Katamizawa).
Secom Trust Systems Co., Ltd., which can provide a more stable company infrastructure by installing the Remote
PC Array, is expected to develop a “safe, secure, pleasant, and convenient” company, move toward the “Social
System Industry”, challenge ourselves to handle a number of social problems, and create the most suitable andnecessary services for customers.
