Summary

In this chapter, we have discussed some of the security aspects of deploying Horizon View. We started off by describing what an SSL certificate is and why Horizon View uses them, before going on to show this practically by installing and configuring a Root CA server and then configuring the View components in the example lab to use these certificates.

The second part of this chapter explored the True SSO feature of Horizon View. Again, we demonstrated this practically by configuring the certificates server to use this feature, and then configuring the Horizon View Enrollment Server and Connection Server so that they "trust" each other when it comes to the user login process.
