Master Screen Capture Protection in Intune for Azure Virtual Desktop — Boost Your Defense Today!



Why It Matters

Activating screen capture protection in Intune is essential to prevent data breaches from unauthorized screenshots, ensuring compliance with standards like GDPR or HIPAA. With rising cyber risks, protecting your remote desktop environment is critical.

Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Access the Configuration

    • Log in to the Microsoft Intune admin center.

    • Go to Devices > Windows > Configuration profiles > Create profile.

  2. Select Settings

    • Under Configuration settings, expand Administrative Templates and then Experience.

    • Locate 

    • Windows Components > Remote Desktop Services > Remote Desktop Session Host > Azure Virtual Desktop

    • And select Allow Screen Capture.
  3. Configure the Setting

    • Set Enable screen capture protection to Enabled.

    • Under Screen Capture Protection Options, choose Block screen capture on client and server to prevent screenshots on both ends.


      • You can choose between two levels:

        • Option: Block on client and server - Protects both the user's computer and the AVD machine (the remote desktop) from taking screenshots.

        • Option: Block on client - Protects only the user's computer (the client) from taking screenshots.

      • Simple difference:

        • Block on client and server stops screenshots both on the user's side and on the remote AVD machine.

        • Block on client stops screenshots only on the user's side.

  4. Apply and Review

    • Assign scope tags and target devices or user groups.

    • Click Review + create to deploy the profile.

Key Benefits

  • Enhanced Security: Stops sensitive data from being captured.

  • Regulatory Compliance: Aligns with legal standards.

  • Confidence Boost: Builds trust with stakeholders.
