Making RDP secure

So I just want to use RDP but I want to make it secure. I want to be able to use all the clients that have RDP (Remote Desktop Client) already installed.

What is a product that I can use to accomplish this? Is there a solution that would support 5 or 10 or up to quite a few thousand or would it require something different if I needed to do quite a few thousand?

Thanks

Consider using VMware Virtual Desktop Manager (VDM 2). This product uses a secure HTTPS connection between the client device and the VDM 2 Connection Servers. This ensures that all traffic from the client device, including the RDP connection, is secure. It is encrypted within the HTTPS connection.

VDM 2 also has several other security features designed for use in a VDI environment.

Please refer to the document http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vdm20_intro.pdf for more details. There is also a VDM 2 specific community here.

Mark.
