Abstract
Disclosed are methods and apparatus for isolating a connection between a client machine and a remote desktop application running on a virtual machine (VM), the remote desktop application providing a virtual desktop to the client machine. The VM is configured to execute the remote desktop application and one or more other applications. The connection between the client machine and the remote desktop application, for exchanging remote desktop protocol data, is provided by using a first virtual network interface card (VNIC) on the VM, where the first VNIC is exclusively accessible by the remote desktop application and inaccessible to the one or more other applications. Another connection between a remote server and one of the one or more other applications is provided using a second VNIC on the VM, in response to the remote desktop application receiving an indication from the virtual desktop to execute the one application.
