# SD Desktop (Sensitive Data Desktop)

SD Desktop is a web-user interface that allows you to manage (start, use, delete) a virtual computer (here called Desktop, technically defined as vitual machine) from your web browser. No previous knowledge of cloud computing or programming expertise are required to use the service. SD Desktop is designed to process sensitive data and provide a secure workspace for collaborative research projects.

## Before you start

* All the members belonging to a specific CSC project can access the same computing virtual Desktop. Currently, it is possible to launch 3 virtual Desktops (or computing environment) for each CSC project. Each CSC project has its private Desktop, and each Desktop is isolated from other CSC projects or CSC accounts unless you authorize it.

Is computing needed in "computing virtual Desktops", and does it really make sense to capitalize "Desktop" when you in general talk about the desktops (and not SD Desktop brand name specifically)

Once you have access to the service, you can launch your virtual computer (Desktop), choosing between four pre-built options. This operation can be carried out with a few simple steps and does not require any technical experties. Next, the services will start your virtual Desktop (or, in technical terms: launch a virtual machine) and create a secure connection between CSC and your browser. After launch, your virtual Desktop will be directly available for use every time you log in to the service. Moreover, the running Desktop will consume billing units (or resources) from your CSC project until it is deleted.
