VDI company Tilion announced on the 3rd that its next-generation VDI platform, "Dstation X (Dstation X)", has obtained GS certification Grade 1. GS certification Grade 1 is the highest level of software quality certification.
Tilion said it plans to expand supply of its next-generation VDI to the public, financial, and enterprise markets on the back of the certification. It cited the Grade 1 GS certification for "Dstation X" as evidence for market expansion.
The certified model in this case is "Dstation (Dstation) v10.0." "Dstation" previously received GS certification for v3.0 in 2018 and v9.0 in 2021, and this is its third certification.
GS certification is a national certification based on a notice from the Ministry of Science and ICT. It is based on software quality evaluation aligned with international standards, and the evaluation environment is a test setting close to an actual operating environment.
When a product obtains Grade 1 GS certification, it becomes eligible for preferential purchase by public institutions, can be registered on the Public Procurement Service's Narajangteo General Shopping Mall, and can also be used for third-party unit-price contracts. It also receives an exemption from benchmark tests (BMT) for informatization projects, and public institutions can purchase the product without a separate bid.
Tilion recorded an average market share of 83.2% in the VDI segment of Narajangteo from 2021 to 2026, maintaining the No. 1 position in that segment for 6 consecutive years. That performance was driven by v9.0, and Dstation X is the successor to v9.0.
Dstation X targets enterprises, public institutions, and financial institutions with high concurrent-user demand, as well as DaaS providers. The product supports access to a central virtual PC from devices such as PCs, laptops, and tablets, and provides administrators with single-screen management of multiple virtual PCs and policies. It can also be built on existing infrastructure such as Hyper-V and KVM.
Tilion said security is the biggest change in this version. The security overhaul focuses on strengthening access control and audit functions, applying a least-privilege strategy by job role and access environment, and using RBAC and ABAC at the same time to prevent misuse of privileges. It also allows direct control of process and network access at the VM kernel level, which Tilion said makes it harder to bypass than application-level security tools.
The company also added screen and document watermarks, blocked screen captures, and introduced access control for the administrator portal as well as policies that distinguish between internal and external access. All security events are stored in a central audit log with time information, and the log can be used for real-time monitoring and post-incident root-cause analysis.
Tilion also improved operational convenience features. The user and administrator portals support English and Japanese, and the provisioning and authentication modules were also improved. Remote access for Mac and Linux was also enhanced, and the improved remote access function is aimed at high-resolution environments such as large displays and 4K video and is said to have been verified through services at LG Group affiliates.
Based on its multi-tenant capabilities, the feature supports separation of data by organization and by client, as well as separation of policies by organization and by client, providing an environment that DaaS providers can use. It also enables HTML5 web access without the need to install a client or plugin, allowing virtual desktops to run through a browser alone and making it possible to operate separately for users and client companies, as well as to access through a browser without installation.
In addition, Tilion independently developed a device redirection protocol as a technology to ease network burdens. The protocol supports compression of webcam traffic and peripheral-device traffic such as printers, and device redirection is a technology that allows peripherals connected on the client side to be used in the same way from a remote server in a VDI environment.
Tilion presented a plan to develop Dstation X into an entry point for internal AI within organizations. To that end, it proposed a 4-tier AI classification of Organization, Internal, Group, and Personal, and described external commercial AI usage as going through a gateway. It also introduced a "hierarchical multi-AI system (OIGP)."
The structure controls security and budgets at the upper tiers while allowing autonomy by task at the lower tiers, with data isolation between tiers and policy inheritance across tiers. Access to AI at each tier is limited to the VDI-specific messenger "Station (Station)," while copy, download, screen capture, and external storage-device connections are blocked by policy, and records of who used what are preserved. This is an approach to solving data protection and audit requirements, which are cited as burdens for institutions introducing generative AI, through VDI.
Based on this, Tilion is building a lineup that includes the basic Dstation X, Engineering (XE), development environment (XT), AI platform (XI), and AI computer-based testing (XABT), and is pushing ahead with registration on Narajangteo General Shopping Mall through perpetual and annual license models. The expansion target includes public and financial institutions, as well as educational institutions such as universities.
Tilion CEO Choi Baek-jun said that, based on the global trend of building internal LLMs on Open Weights AI models, the company is also explaining the combination of internal information leak prevention functions and products for building remote secure work environments.
He said this means the company is now ready to supply an AI work environment optimization solution that can be used in actual organizational operations. The photo is an image of the Dstation v10.0 quality certification certificate, and the photo credit is Tilion.
