Method and apparatus for deterrence and detection of leakage during remote interactive sessions

Abstract:

A server includes a hardware platform, a hypervisor platform, and a virtual machine operating as an independent guest computing device. The virtual machine executes a remote graphics generation protocol to generate a bitmap to be transmitted for display on a client machine associated with the virtual machine, determine a protection label to be inserted within the bitmap, and determine an optimization technique to be performed on the bitmap. The remote graphics generation protocol also determines if the optimization technique, if performed, alters the protection label. If yes, then the protection label is inserted within the bitmap without performing the optimization technique. If no, then the optimization technique is performed and the protection label is inserted within the bitmap.
