Citrix Access Gateway
Best SSL VPN Solution
Citrix Access Gateway™ is a universal SSL VPN appliance
that provides a secure, always-on, single point-of-access
to any information resource. It has all of the advantages
of IPSec and typical SSL VPNs – without the costly and
cumbersome implementation and management – making access
easy for users, secure for the company and low-cost for IT
administrators. It works in both non-Citrix and Citrix environments,
and provides the best integration with Citrix Presentation
Server.
Introducing 4.0
Access Gateway 4.0 offers unprecedented granular control over
access to company information. It is the only product on the
market with Advanced Access Control, a unique Citrix option
that increases protection of the network and information resources.
Advanced Access Control enables IT administrators to establish
a fine degree of control over applications, files, Web content,
e-mail attachments and printing. This option manages both
what information resource can be accessed and what actions
are permitted after access is granted, based on the user’s
role, location, type of device, configuration of device, and
connection. Further, the access-control policy engine and
enforcement decisions are implemented inside of the protected
network, resulting in greater security than is provided by
typical SSL VPNs.
Introducing an Opportunity to Solve Your
Business and IT Challenges
Access Gateway combines the best features of IPSec and SSL
VPNs and delivers the best access experience of any SSL VPN
in the market.
The result?
- A single point of secure access
to any application or IT resource, both data and voice –
Access Gateway provides secure access to any application
hosted on Citrix Presentation Server, as well as distributed
Windows and UNIX applications, direct-access Web applications,
network file shares, data and collaboration services, and
even telephony services using VoIP softphones. In fact,
the Access Gateway is optimized to provide high performance
for UDP-based-applications, such as IP telephony.
- Low total cost to purchase and maintain
– Access Gateway is fast, simple and cost-effective
to deploy and maintain via its Web-deployed, auto-updating
client. Organizations can easily provide their remote and
mobile users with desk-like access from any location –
without the cost and complexity of installing, configuring,
updating and supporting client software on each device.
- Always-on mobility and a seamless
desktop experience for users – Access Gateway
automatically and seamlessly reconnects users to their applications
and documents when they change locations and devices, and
gives users at any location the same access experience that
they have at their desktop. For example, a user can be connected
at a customer or partner location, close his laptop and
disconnect from the network, return to the office, and then
be automatically reconnected – all without a single
keystroke.
- Strengthened data security –
Access Gateway is implemented as a secure-by-design hardened
appliance within an organization’s DMZ. Built-in end-point
scanning provides continuous, real-time end-point scanning
to ensure that a device is safe for remaining connected
to the network.
