9. Feature: Special VM Platform with Virtual Firewall

To enhance IT support to non-ITSC departments, we are pleased to introduce a new service – Special Virtual Machine (VM) Platform with Virtual Firewall.

A VM is a software implementation of a machine that executes programs like a physical machine. This new VM platform is a type of Cloud IT service which offers a VM with firewall protection, in monthly subscription basis, to provide flexibility for non-ITSC departments to acquire their own virtual machines instantly and to eliminate long acquisition process for physical machine.

This special VM platform enables a more convenient and timesaving departmental system management. For further information or application of the service, please visit https://paper.itsc.cuhk.edu.hk/dvp.
