Azure Virtual Desktop
Virtually access a secure remote desktop from anywhere.
Azure Virtual Desktop can reduce costs
If you already have a valid Microsoft 365 or Windows per-user license, Azure Virtual Desktop can be utilized by your organization at no additional cost.
Virtual machines (VMs) can be shut down and their resources reallocated to other tasks to help save infrastructure expenses. Maximize your investment in virtual machines (VMs) by using Windows 10 and Windows 11’s multi-session capabilities. Cut down on up-front costs and better tie operational spending to actual company needs.
Using a managed service in the cloud for your whole VDI setup is a great way to save time and energy on management.
Remotely use your Windows 10 or Windows 11 desktop and all of your favorite programs
The Azure Virtual Desktop client is available for Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, and HTML5, allowing you to access your desktop and apps from any internet-connected device. Pick the right Azure VM for optimal performance and make use of Windows 10 and Windows 11’s multi-session advantage on Azure to support numerous users in a single instance.
Get the most out of Microsoft Teams and Microsoft Office
If your company uses Microsoft products, such as Outlook, OneDrive, and Microsoft Teams, you should ensure that your employees can perform these tasks as easily and efficiently on the web as they would on a desktop or laptop computer.
Key capabilities
Setting up an Azure Virtual Desktop environment is easy and flexible:
- You may set up a complete desktop virtualization system on Azure without the need for gateway servers.
- If you need to distribute host pools to handle a wide variety of workloads, you can do so.
- For mission-critical workloads, you should use an image you’ve already created, whereas, for testing, you can use an image from the Azure Gallery.
- Saving money is easy when resources are shared throughout several sessions. You can drastically cut down on the number of virtual machines and OS overhead while still providing the same resources to users with the new Windows 11 and Windows 10 Enterprise multi-session capability, which is unique to Azure Virtual Desktop and the Remote Desktop Session Host (RDSH) role on Windows Server.
- Allow people to feel like they have a stake in the system by giving them their own (permanent) computers.
- Autoscaling can help you control costs by automatically increasing or decreasing capacity based on time of day, days of the week, or fluctuations in demand.
Deploy Azure Virtual Desktop with AMMP
The Azure Migration and Modernization Program (AMMP) offers evaluation, proof-of-concept, milestone rewards, Azure credits, and technical training for all three control planes. If a partner meets the requirements for the Advanced Specialization or for Citrix and VMware partners, they will be given the option to enable whichever control planes they like in AMMP.
What makes Azure Virtual Desktop so trusted?
Integral Safety Features
- By keeping data on Azure rather than on local PCs, you may help safeguard your employees and your company’s data.

They’re capable of finding threats before they even happen, responding quickly to any alerts they get, and fixing any problems that arise.
What are the services in SOC?
As a managed service, SOC as a service keeps an eye on security around the clock, utilizing automation and data science to increase the speed of detection and the reliability of alarms. Vulnerability evaluations, threat surveillance, and incident responses are all part of a security operations center (SOC) as a service.
How does a SOC develop?
- There are five main stages in creating a SOC:
- Planning the SOC.
- Designing the SOC.
- Building the SOC.
- Operating the SOC.
- Reviewing the SOC.
