The Horizon Security Server is a type of Horizon Connection Server that is designed to add an additional layer of security between remote Horizon Clients and Horizon resources that are located on a private network. Rather than provide remote Horizon clients with direct access to the Horizon Connection Server, organizations can deploy a Horizon Security Server within a DMZ or other secure network to provide secure remote access to Horizon-managed resources. Some of the functions and features of the Horizon Security Server include:
Provides remote Horizon Clients with their own dedicated Horizon connection broker, ensuring an optimal user experience
Brokers connections between remote Horizon Clients and internal Horizon-managed resources
Authenticates user connection requests
Supports RSA SecurID and RADIUS for enabling optional two-factor user authentication
Can be placed in a DMZ to further isolate the Security Server from the private network
