Security

Data is highly available and accessible from anywhere and can be configured for increased resiliency by hosting copies of your data across different locations and separate zones. When configured this way, Microsoft guarantees 99.99% availability. Even if a zone loses connectivity, your data is still secure and available locally, regionally, or worldwide on your choice of redundant zone(s).

Azure ensures the security of your data by utilizing reverse connect transport, sending an encrypted connection (HTTPS port) to the user instead of using a less secure open Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) port. In addition, implementing optional security features allows you to ensure that data never moves from the VM to a physical device. You can require Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for users as part of the Zero Trust protocols. Microsoft Defender is fully optimized with Azure Virtual Desktop, meaning that your data is proactively secured against threats. Azure security infrastructure also includes Azure Active Directory security, Azure Firewall, and Azure Security Center, providing security options where you need them most.

Azure Virtual Desktop works with almost every modern browser, and is works seamlessly with devices using Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, and HTML5.

With Azure, users experience no difference between using a physical computer or accessing a Virtual Machine (VM).  can be accessed from anywhere, on any device. FSLogix Profile Containers connects users to their own profile upon login, so all personal settings and files are available immediately regardless of which physical device they use or which VM they have been assigned to for each session.
