VMware Horizon View Security Server overview


The View Security Server is a type of View Connection Server that is designed to add an additional layer of security between remote View Clients and View resources that are located on a private network. Rather than provide remote View Clients with direct access to the View Connection Server, organizations can deploy a View Security Server within a DMZ or other secure network to provide secure remote access to View-managed resources. Some of the functions and features of the View Security Server include:

  • Provides remote View Clients with their own dedicated View connection broker, ensuring an optimal user experience

  • Brokers connections between remote View Clients and internal View-managed resources

  • Authenticates user connection requests

  • Supports RSA SecurID and RADIUS for enabling optional two-factor user authentication

  • Can be placed in a DMZ to further isolate the Security Server from the private network

  • Does not need to be a member of an Active Directory...
