Government Mobility: Bridging the Gap between Desktops and Devices

According to Pew Research Center, 91 percent of American adults own cell phones and 56 percent own smartphones. These users are ready to access government data anywhere and anytime. How are agencies using virtualized desktop integration to deploy secure mobility?
