Abstract:

A computing system includes a virtualization server to provide a virtual session, and a client device communicating with the virtualization server and displaying the virtual session. The client device includes a camera for generating user images of a user of the client device. A user validator includes a policy database for security enforcement, and analyzes the user images and selects at least one policy from the policy database based on the analyzed images. The at least one policy provides at least one action to be taken by the computing system to protect the virtual session.
