Microsoft offers different solutions for the provision of virtual desktops and applications, whether on-premises with Microsoft Remote Desktop Services (RDS) or via Microsoft Cloud with Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktops (AVD). With deviceTRUST you can add an additional layer of security to your Zero Trust strategy when accessing these environments.

deviceTRUST’s contextual security continuously validates information about the accessing device and manages access based on the validity of the context of the device, without any need for user intervention. This allows companies to securely and intelligently follow through with all security, compliance and legal requirements when accessing Microsoft Remote Desktop Services (RDS) or Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktops (AVD).

In addition, the device context known from deviceTRUST’s contextual security can also be used within Microsoft Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). Microsoft Azure AD allows identity management to control user and group access to services and resources. Due to the continuous validation of the device connected to Microsoft’s Azure AD, deviceTRUST’s device context can also be used for access control via Microsoft Conditional Access.
