Extending the range of Citrix – securely and cost-effectively.

Citrix is the world’s leading server-based computing platform. However, securing mobile Citrix users can often end up being complex and expensive.

Typically, companies choose an IPSec or SSL VPN for encryption, such as Citrix’ own Citrix Access Gateway (CAG). They then supplement this with a secure token solution for strong authentication. On top of this many add an end-point security solution to address the risk posed by the increasing range of spyware. Citrix typically requires a range of ports to be opened on the firewall. Monitoring access to these ports can be achieved with a Network Access Control (NAC) solution and/or an Intrusion Detection System (IDS).

The resulting complexity ends up increasing the cost of ownership considerably.

G/On is an alternative that simply and efficiently solves all these problems. Based on Giritech’s unique EMCADS™ technology, G/On lets you securely deploy Citrix clients on USB keys, giving you the flexibility to run the application from virtually any Windows 2000+ PC.

More importantly, G/On’s comprehensive security set reduce the cost and complexity of securing remote access:

• 2 factor user authentication
• Mutual client/server authentication prevents phishing
• Nodeless “lock-to-process” connection prevents malware from spreading into network via the connection
• All data is encrypted with 256-bit AES while checksums prevent “man-in-the-middle”, spoofing and relay attacks
• All traffic enters the firewall through just one port
