What technology does VMware utilize for secure remote access?

VMware Horizon with Blast Extreme protocol is the correct answer because it is specifically designed to provide secure remote access to virtualized desktops and applications. The Blast Extreme protocol optimizes the user experience over a variety of networks and is particularly efficient for remote access scenarios. It ensures that connections are secure while maintaining performance, catering to users who require access to their virtual environments from various locations and devices.

In contrast, while VMware Workstation provides virtualization capabilities, it primarily serves as a local solution for running multiple operating systems on a single physical machine rather than focusing on secure remote access. VMware Cloud on AWS offers a platform for running VMware workloads on AWS infrastructure but does not directly provide secure remote access functionality. Similarly, VMware NSX Data Center is critical for network virtualization and security within data centers but does not specifically address remote access needs. Only VMware Horizon with its Blast Extreme protocol is tailored to delivering secure and optimized remote access to virtual desktops and applications.
