Abstract

Desktop cloud is a typical application of cloud computing, effectively improving the efficiency of computing resource utilization and maintenance. Desktop cloud has made profound changes in the way that people use desktop applications. But with the extensive use of desktop cloud, the challenge has become how to centrally manage users´ authentication and identity as a unified mode. This paper analyzes the traditional single sign-on authentication technology and desktop cloud, presenting a unified desktop cloud-based authentication mode, then proposing a unified desktop cloud-based authentication architecture. In the end the advantages of this architecture are analyzed.
