Summary

We started this chapter by looking at application masking and hiding applications from users who are not within the correct security groups, and other assignment options. We then moved on to take a look at the benefits of application file containers and how to redirect application files to a VHD or VHDX. Next, we looked at how to deploy and configure a RemoteApp application, and in the example used, we published Notepad as a RemoteApp application to the Remote Desktop client.

We then looked at deploying OneDrive for multiple sessions using per-machine installation. Next, we covered both Microsoft Teams AV redirection and MMR. Finally, to finish the chapter, we looked at how to restrict session host internet access using an NSG.

I hope you found this chapter interesting and are looking forward to the next, where we take a look at planning and implementing business continuity and disaster recovery.
