Securing Studio and Director

You can further bolster the security of your XenDesktop Site by installing SSL on both the Studio and the Director servers. Both Studio and Director are web-based interfaces, so they run on IIS. To secure these, you can install SSL on IIS.

IIS

To install a server certificate on the Studio and Director servers running IIS, you need to create a certificate request, submit it to a CA, and then install the issued certificate in IIS.

Tip

To implement SSL on IIS, follow the Microsoft article at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/299875.
