Most people associate security with network security and focus on firewalls and network monitoring. However, there is more to security than that. Security starts with the establishment of a stable environment, protecting this environment not only from intrusion, but also from malicious intent.

This book takes you through the four major View security areas. Each area deals with all the aspects of security and explains the background as well as laying out simple-to-follow recipes to implement a higher security standard.
We start at the Virtualization base and work our way through the various View server types. We will then dive into the problems and issues of securing a connection before we address the security of the desktop itself. We conclude with a look into the backing up of our View installation and preparing for disaster recovery.

Most people associate security with network security and focus on firewalls and network monitoring. But security is more than that. It starts with establishing a stable environment, protecting this environment not only from intrusion but also from malicious intent. Last but not the least it is about tracking the issue and recovering from it. All this is security and needs to be addressed.
, Introduction to View , gives a short overview of what a typical View environment contains as well as definitions of all the technical terms we will be using.
, Securing Your Base , explains that a VMware virtual machine image is hardware independent, replacing the physical corporate desktops with thin clients makes changes to the corporate desktop image a lot easier as well as centralizing the management of it. This centralization also creates the need to rethink provisioning and redundancy compared to the traditional IT methods. As everyone who uses a vDesktop is now dependent on the centralized virtual environment, it is of the upmost importance that this infrastructure is safe and available. We will discuss how to harden the View servers and integrate them into the existing VMware vSphere settings, such as HA, DRS, and event monitoring. We will also take a bit of time to understand how View logfiles work and how to read them.
