What term describes protection of the VDI-hosted image when used by end users?

• A. VDI Implementation Restriction
• B. Removable/External Media Blocking
• C. Print blocking
• D. Classification

Answer: (A)

The protection of the VDI-hosted image when end users interact with it is achieved through VDI implementation restrictions. These are the policy controls applied at the VDI layer that govern how a user can interact with the virtual desktop, preventing actions that could leak or alter the base image. By restricting things like clipboard and file transfers, USB or peripheral usage, screen capture, and other interaction methods, the administrator keeps the golden image secure and consistent across sessions.

The other options describe specific, narrower controls—blocking removable media handles only media access, print blocking restricts printing, and classification is about labeling data by sensitivity—not the broad set of rules that protect the VDI image as users access it.
