Certificate security provider in a published app environment

On this page

When configuring a Certificate Security Provider in a published app environment (Citrix, RemoteApp, XenApp) as a Security Provider, the user who will run Remote Desktop Manager in the RemoteApp environment (Citrix) will require a Read permission on the certificate. If the Read permission is not correctly set, Remote Desktop Manager will generate the CryptographicException - Keyset does not exist error dialog.
