Summary
In this chapter, we have been introduced to the VMware Horizon Security Server, a feature of Horizon that provides organizations with the ability to provide secure remote access to Horizon desktops or applications. We have learnt what is required to deploy and configure a Horizon Security Server, what the limits of a Security Server are, and where the Security Server fits in within the Horizon infrastructure.
We also discussed which components of the Security Server need to be backed up, and which are custom SSL certificates, as well as the Security Server logs.
We concluded this chapter by discussing how to restore or upgrade a Horizon Security Server. In the next chapter, we will discuss Horizon Access Point, which provides similar capabilities as a Horizon Security Server but is provided as a hardened, Linux-based virtual appliance.
