Azure Confidential Virtual Machines (VMs) support in Azure Virtual Desktop is in public preview. Confidential Virtual Machines increase data privacy and security by protecting data in use. The Azure [DCasv5 and ECasv5](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/confidential-computing/confidential-vm-overview) confidential VM series provide a hardware-based Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) that features AMD SEV-SNP security capabilities, which harden guest protections to deny the hypervisor and other host management code access to VM memory and state, and that is designed to protect against operator access and encrypts data in use. With this preview, support for Windows 11 22H2 has been added to Confidential Virtual Machines. For more information, please read the [announcement](https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/azure-virtual-desktop-blog/confidential-virtual-machine-support-for-azure-virtual-desktop/ba-p/3686350) blog post or the [documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/confidential-computing/confidential-vm-overview).
