Citrix Announces Enterprise Mobility Management Support for Intel® Device Protection Technology
February 24 2014 - 3:05AM
Business Wire
Citrix today announced support for Intel® Device Protection
Technology (Intel DPT), enabling enterprises to secure and manage
Intel-based Android mobile devices. Intel DPT combined with Citrix
XenMobile™ will provide enhanced hardware and software security and
management capabilities, empowering IT organizations with increased
levels of control without compromising end-user experience.
As Bring-Your-Own-Device (BYOD) programs are quickly becoming
the norm, enterprises are embracing a variety of mobile platforms.
According to the Citrix “Mobility in Business” report1, 72 percent
of companies say they support or are planning to support Android
this year. However, IT organizations are challenged with
Android-based devices that are not compatible with their company’s
security requirements.
Intel DPT with XenMobile will protect Intel-based mobile
devices, apps and data on it - this enables mobile employees to
access corporate assets securely and further accelerates the
adoption of Android-based devices across organizations. Intel-based
devices with Intel DPT running Android OS have enhanced layers of
security built in. XenMobile will fully leverage the manageability
extensions for Android offered by Intel DPT. In doing so, XenMobile
will provide IT with full administrative visibility and control,
including access to enterprise mobility management (EMM)
capabilities, like application management; device configuration,
inventory, and remote management; and communications and network
configuration, among others.
