U N I V E R S A L S S L V P N P R O V I D E S U S E R S T H E B E S T A C C E S S E X P E R I E N C E T O A L L A P P L I CAT I O N S A N D R E S O U R C E S .

Citrix Access Gateway™ is a universal SSL VPN appliance that combines the best features of IPSec and typical SSL VPNs – without the costly and cumbersome implementation and management – to make access easy for users, secure for the company, and low-cost for the IT department. The Access Gateway provides a secure, always-on, single point of access to any information resource. It works through any firewall; supports all applications and protocols, including IP telephony; is fast, simple and cost-effective to deploy and maintain via its Web-deployed, auto-updating client; and ensures that devices meet company security standards with a worm-blocking client and integrated end-point scanning.

The Access Gateway automatically and seamlessly reconnects users to their applications when they change locations and devices, and gives them the same access experience they have at the desktop.

Citrix 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.

With the addition of the Advanced Access Control option, the IT organisation can utilise sense and response

capabilities to not only provide or deny access to appropriate applications, but also control the level of user action rights for each application or resource accessed.

Citrix Access Gateway

Secure, Scalable Access for Mobile Professionals

The South Carolina Department of Probation, Parole and Pardon Services (SCDPPPS) is responsible for helping motivated offenders succeed in their communities within the framework of public safety. The organisation needed to give its mobile professionals secure access to the network to retrieve case-related information. But its IPSec VPN

presented firewall traversal issues and created heavy support demands. SCDPPPS implemented the Citrix Access Gateway, which offered a competitive price, simple and rapid implementation, and an easy-to-use client that eliminated manual installation and upgrades. With the Citrix solution in place, the thick-client PowerBuilder application used by SCDPPPS agents worked across firewalls without a single change to the application. Secure, Scalable Access for Mobile Professionals

The Access Gateway has an easy-to-use, automatically downloaded and updated client. There is no need for users to understand complex client software. In addition, remote users enjoy the same rich desktop application access experience as if they were physically connected to the local network. Always-on access automatically and seamlessly reconnects users to their applications and documents when they change locations and devices, or lose connectivity. And with Advanced Access Control, users connecting to an Access Gateway – whether inside or outside the network, on a clientless device, PDA, laptop or PC – are presented with the same familiar user interface.

The Access Gateway client hides the internal network addressing scheme and, in combination with split tunnelling control, effectively blocks common network worms. A combination of login and continuous, real-time endpoint scanning ensures that the user device remains safe for connection to the corporate network.

With the addition of the Advanced Access Control option, your IT organisation can utilise sense-and-respond capabilities to not only grant or deny access to appropriate applications, but also control what the user can do with the information. For example, based on the access device and/or location, organisations can control whether users are allowed to view, print, edit or save information.

The Citrix Access Gateway universal SSL VPN dramatically reduces management complexity compared to traditional approaches. Administrators can quickly and easily install, configure and deploy the Access Gateway without compromising security. This results in greatly improved cost of ownership. User access is delivered without the cost and complexity of installing, configuring, updating and supporting client software on each device. The client software is automatically downloaded when a user connects to the gateway, so users always receive the latest version.

T H E B E S T R E M OT E A C C E S S S O L U T I O N

The Citrix Access Gateway universal SSL VPN is the best remote access solution – no other SSL VPN offers such an efficient and cost-effective remote access experience. Citrix Access Gateway can be deployed with or without Citrix Presentation Server™. Don’t confuse the Access Gateway with typical SSL VPNs that offer only half the solution – remote access, but not policy-based granular control over what users are permitted to do with your company’s valuable information.
