Healthcare
Shared clinical workstations, focused on the clinical system.
Ward, clinic and reception PCs are shared by many staff across a day. XPC makes every one of them present the clinical applications and nothing else.
The short answer
How can hospitals lock shared clinical workstations to the clinical system?
XPC runs on the Windows workstations already deployed on wards and in clinics. Each machine boots to a branded screen offering only the published clinical desktop or application. Windows stays in place, so smart card readers, label printers, imaging peripherals, endpoint security agents and existing device management continue to operate unchanged.
Shared safely
Many staff, one PC
No local desktop state carried between users.
0
OS migrations
Windows stays. No reimaging, no new endpoint operating system to learn.

Steps to deploy
Log in to the XPC Cloud Portal, install the MSI, enable XPC Mode.
Clinical peripherals keep their Windows drivers
Card readers, label printers, dictation devices and imaging peripherals in healthcare environments are certified against Windows. Because XPC does not replace the operating system, none of that certification work is repeated.
Security and audit tooling is unaffected
Endpoint protection, patching, device compliance and reporting keep running on the Windows endpoint. XPC changes the user-facing shell, not the security posture your organisation already governs.
- EDR and antivirus agents continue to run
- Existing patching and compliance reporting unchanged
- Device joins and identity unchanged
- No second endpoint platform to assure
Less for staff to navigate under pressure
A single, predictable screen at every workstation means clinical staff spend no time looking for the right application, and no time in a desktop they were never intended to use.
At the desk
What the user actually sees.
- A branded screen at every shared workstation
- Direct access to the published clinical applications
- No local desktop, file system or settings
- The same screen back after sign-out
Healthcare
Simplify the screen, not the assurance.
XPC leaves your Windows security, device management and clinical peripheral certification exactly where they are.
Questions we are asked
Straight answers.
Does XPC change our endpoint security posture?
No. Windows continues to run, so your EDR, antivirus, patching and compliance tooling operate exactly as they do today.
Will smart card readers and label printers still work?
Yes. They continue to use the Windows drivers already installed and validated.
Can we run XPC on some wards first?
Yes. XPC Mode is enabled per PC from the XPC Cloud Portal, so a pilot on one ward or clinic is straightforward and reversible.
