C# check RDP user login

Question

I'm writing C# program that used on desktop or server os. And I need to know that the current user is working via RDP. How can I get this information?

The system variable %sessionname% will return Console if its local or RDP* if its remote.

isRDP = [System.Environment]
    .GetEnvironmentVariable("SESSIONNAME").StartsWith("RDP-")
