Enterprise Desktop for Windows 10
by Derek Coleman & Associates Corporation
Hardened single-session and AVD multi-session enterprise desktop images for ESU estates.
Enterprise Desktop for Windows 10 — Hardened Azure VM for Workstation and AVD Workloads
This offer delivers a production-ready enterprise desktop image for Azure, built on Microsoft's Windows 10 Enterprise 22H2 operating system and certified for the Microsoft Azure Marketplace. Each image is freshly built from the official Windows 10 Enterprise base, fully patched with that month's cumulative quality update (Important/Critical), hardened to Microsoft's Azure Marketplace certification standards, and published with a passing certification report on every release.
Who this is for: IT administrators, virtual-desktop architects, and managed service providers running Windows 10 estates on Azure — including organizations on the Extended Security Updates (ESU) program — who need a hardened, patch-current base image instead of building one by hand.
Value proposition: Maintaining a hardened, Trusted-Launch-capable enterprise desktop image requires ongoing effort — monthly cumulative updates, Defender for Endpoint offboarding, Secure Boot verification, and Azure VM certification. This offer handles all of it:
- Monthly patched & certified — rebuilt each month with the latest cumulative quality update; passes Azure Marketplace certification before any version is published
- Trusted Launch ready — vTPM and Secure Boot template captured at build time; deploy on Standard_D v6 and other Trusted Launch-capable VM sizes
- Security-hardened baseline — Microsoft Defender for Endpoint offboarded; EOL runtime components removed; no build-time tooling residue
- Audit trail per release — certification reports retained for every published image version
Plans available:
- Enterprise 22H2 — single-session — dedicated workstation VMs; bring your own enterprise license. Windows 10 mainstream support ended October 2025; deploy only where ESU coverage applies
- Enterprise multi-session 22H2 — Azure Virtual Desktop pooled host pools; requires an eligible Azure Virtual Desktop license; optimized for FSLogix profile containers
Supported integrations: Azure Virtual Desktop, FSLogix profile containers, Microsoft Entra ID join, Azure Monitor, Azure Update Manager, Azure Backup, Microsoft Intune.
Recommended deployment: Standard_D4ads_v6 or larger; Premium SSD. For AVD: deploy multi-session into an Azure Virtual Desktop host pool with FSLogix on Azure Files or Azure NetApp Files.
