Citrix Access Gateway™
Secure Access from Anywhere
Citrix® Access Gateway™ is the only SSL VPN to
securely deliver any application
with policy-based SmartAccess control. Users have easy-to use secure
access to the applications and data they need to be productive.
Organizations can cost effectively extend access to datacenter
resources from outside the office while maintaining unprecedented
control through comprehensive SmartAccess policies.
SmartAccess – Ultimate Flexibility in Controlling Access and Actions
Citrix’s patent-pending SmartAccess technology allows administrators to
control both access and actions based on both the user and the endpoint
device. For example, a user may have full access (read, save locally,
print, etc.) to a set of files when utilizing their office PC – but may
be restricted to “read-only” access when connecting through an
unrecognized “kiosk” device. Similarly, if an employee tries to log
into the corporate network via a home PC that does not have an active
anti-virus update service that employee may not be able to access
certain mission-critical systems. With SmartAccess, administrators are
provided ultimate flexibility in developing and implementing corporate
security policies.
