Leverage the Internet.
Citrix® Secure Gateway allows Citrix
MetaFrame® for Windows® and Citrix MetaFrame 1.1 for UNIX® customers to simply
and securely deliver business-critical applications over the Internet, on demand
to any device. Citrix Secure Gateway protects remote users of Citrix Independent
Computing Architecture (ICA®) across the Internet by functioning as a Secure
Sockets Layer (SSL) gateway between Citrix MetaFrame servers and Citrix ICA
client devices. It also provides a single point of entry and secure access to
Citrix MetaFrame server farms.
Secure data transfer.
Citrix Secure Gateway is an enterprise-wide
solution that protects a customer's network infrastructure, data and
applications. All Citrix ICA traffic traversing the Internet between client
devices and the Citrix Secure Gateway server is encrypted using
Internet-standard SSL technology, ensuring the secure transfer of data across
public networks.
Easy deployment.
Citrix Secure Gateway eliminates the need to
install additional client software (beyond the Citrix ICA client) and can easily
traverse Internet firewalls. It is completely transparent to both applications
and network devices.
Simple to use.
Citrix Secure Gateway removes the need to publish
the address of every Citrix MetaFrame server across the Internet. It simplifies
server certificate management and provides a single point of access into the
Citrix MetaFrame server farm. Citrix MetaFrame servers are hidden from the
Internet and cannot be accessed directly.
