When you enable the clipboard audit feature, Horizon Agent records information about copy and paste activity in an event log on the agent machine. The clipboard audit feature is disabled by default.
This feature applies only to copying and pasting text and images. It does not apply to copying and pasting files and folders.
To enable the clipboard audit feature, you must configure the Configure clipboard audit group policy setting.
If Horizon Agent 7.6 is installed on the agent machine, only information about clipboard data that is copied from the agent machine to the client machine is recorded in the event log. If Horizon Agent 7.7 or later is installed on the agent machine, you can configure the clipboard audit feature to record information only about data that is copied from the client machine to the agent machine, only about data that is copied from the agent machine to the client machine, or about data that are copied in both directions.
You can optionally configure the Whether block clipboard redirection to client side when client doesn't support audit group policy setting to specify whether to block clipboard redirection to clients that do not support the clipboard audit feature.
For more information about the group policy settings for clipboard redirection, see the Configuring Remote Desktop Features in Horizon document.
The event log where information about copy and paste activity is recorded is named VMware Horizon RX Audit. To view the event log on the agent machine, use the Windows event viewer. To view the event log from a centralized location, configure VMware Log Insight or Windows Event Collector. For information about Log Insight, go to https://docs.vmware.com/en/vRealize-Log-Insight/index.html. For information about Windows Event Collector, see the Microsoft documentation.
