Why does the clerk-of-court window standardize on zero clients rather than full PCs for Horizon sessions?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
A zero client is more like a dumb terminal than a laptop you babysit — no local Windows to patch, no case files sitting on a disk, and a dead unit gets swapped like a keyboard. Boxer and AutoCAD need a real OS, and NSX overlay inspection is not why the window uses pucks.
Full Explanation
Zero clients minimize the local attack and management surface: firmware instead of a general-purpose OS, no resident user data, and appliance-style replacement. They are not the place to install Workspace ONE Boxer or offline CAD. NSX Distributed Firewall is a network-virtualization control and is not the EUC reason to choose a zero client. Fat or thick PCs remain the fit when local apps and offline work are required.
