Explanation

VMware Horizon Cloud on Microsoft Azure (C) satisfies all three requirements simultaneously: it deploys rapidly because the cloud infrastructure is pre-built and managed by Microsoft, it provides centralized brokering through the Horizon Cloud control plane, and it delivers end-to-end security via Azure's built-in compliance and encryption capabilities combined with Horizon's secure access features - all without requiring on-premises hardware provisioning.

• A (vSphere Desktop Edition) is a hypervisor/compute platform, not a complete desktop brokering solution - it lacks the brokering and rapid deployment components the scenario demands.
• B (Horizon On-Premises) requires significant infrastructure planning, hardware procurement, and setup time, making "quick implementation" difficult to achieve.
• D (Workspace ONE UEM) is a unified endpoint management and MDM solution focused on managing physical devices, not on provisioning and brokering virtual desktops.

Memory tip: Think of the three requirements as a cloud checklist - fast + brokered + secure - which maps directly to a managed cloud VDI service. Anytime a scenario combines speed of deployment with centralized brokering and end-to-end security without mentioning on-prem hardware, the answer is the cloud-hosted Horizon option.
