"Virtualization: Featuring XenServer & XenDesktop"

Citrix application delivery solutions enable IT teams to deliver integrated data security with strong measures, assuring data security beyond defending the corporate network against external attacks and insider threats. This makes it easy for IT executives and their teams to:

• Launch new applications and new services successfully, guaranteeing information system security without delaying business initiatives, and...
• Ensure that the integration of security tools into the legacy infrastructure does not cause any drop in security or productivity, guaranteeing that all applications are available and the business is agile

A solution that keeps pace with the business
At the heart of our solution is Citrix application delivery infrastructure, which gives IT the flexibility to change on demand, without changing the overall environment, and today is relied upon by IT teams and their strategic executives at more than 200,000 organizations throughout the world. Citrix application delivery infrastructure is the proven, worldwide solution for application delivery.

With Citrix’s solution, IT can

• Keep sensitive data confidential when delivering Web applications to millions of customers online, with strong built-in defenses against a wide range of application-layer threats
• Strengthen security for Web application delivery with award-winning firewall options
• Make sure the data always stay in the safest place when delivering Windows applications, with application virtualization
• Reduce data security risks when delivering Windows desktops, by centralizing end-user desktops and data in the datacenter, thereby retaining control of the IP and reducing the security risk of data loss at the endpoint
• Deliver desktop applications without worrying about application and system conflicts and without lowering security standards, by streaming applications to a protected isolation environment rather than installing them on the user’s device
• Quickly distribute patches for Windows applications to hundreds of servers and thousands of clients, with applications located on centralized servers managed directly by the IT department, so each patch only has to be installed once
• Switch to a virtualized browser for fast action and high productivity, with only one browser that is installed and configured by the IT staff centrally for all branch offices and other distant locations
• Strengthen security for Windows application delivery, with secure logons delivered via the Single Sign-On feature
• Leverage a single application security point for immediate user productivity and a single control point for rapid IT security response
• Enhance application security, with traffic encrypted from end to end, regardless of the application requested
• Accelerate application delivery over any WAN, anywhere, from any datacenter, anywhere, by optimizing the broadband connection between the branch office or other distant location and the secure enterprise datacenter, without modifying any network components
• Know what’s happening at the users’ end of any application, by measuring performance and availability from the users’ perspective, across organizational and geographic boundaries, so IT can identify, address, and resolve issues before they jeopardize security or disrupt business
