Announcing general availability of Screen Capture Protection for Azure Virtual Desktop
fdwl What happens if the WVD client is being used in a VM? I assume the host OS will be able to screenshot/record anything in this case as the underlying VM is not even aware of these tools on the host side. A better detection here is to check if the client is running in a VM and act accordingly, wouldn't that be the case? What about potentially third party clients on Linux too?
c_rod Primary purpose of the feature is to protect content from unintended leak, by accidental sharing or through spyware.
It is not possible to completely prevent intended stealing of the content on unmanaged client device or using external capture such as camera or HDMI capture boxes, if content requires such protection, DRM protection should be applied instead.
While roadmap discussion is off-topic, we are considering additional protections including the support for nested sessions and extended client support. Please use AVD ideas to help prioritizing the work.
