Citrix Radically Simplifies the Secure Delivery of Browser-Based Apps

Citrix Secure Browser Empowers IT to Secure and
Manage Web-based and SaaS Applications; Deploys in Minutes While
Making Apps Easier to Use
Browser-based applications have become a dominant force in the
enterprise, from custom-built web apps to Software-as-a-Service
(SaaS) apps purchased outside of the IT process by business
managers who want to empower their employees with the latest tools.
This surge of browser-based apps often create a myriad of complex
security and IT management complications, which is why customers
turn to Citrix to secure and manage them. For example, many
businesses use custom-built web applications that take advantage of
key features limited to Internet Explorer, and those apps do not
always work well with other browsers. In addition, convenience
features included in modern browsers, such as saving passwords and
personal information, may violate compliance and security policies,
which is why many Citrix customers use XenApp to lock down these
weaknesses and securely deliver these apps to employees today.
That’s why web browsers outnumber any other application published
through Citrix XenApp, based on telemetry metrics from more than
100,000 customers. Yet whether a business has a Citrix-certified
expert, or not, they are all seeking a simple, effective way to
secure and manage apps that help people do their jobs
effectively.
To meet this need, the Citrix Secure Browser product family
launches today, to provide a quick, simple way for any IT
organization – even those that have never used a Citrix product –
to securely deliver web and SaaS applications to any modern
browser. In minutes, an administrator can set up any web
application to be securely delivered to any device, even internally
hosted web apps, without intrusively installing anything on an
employee’s device. With Citrix Secure Browser, the application is
virtually delivered to the end-user’s browser of choice, locking
down the application, eliminating compatibility issues, protecting
sensitive information, and improving the app experience.
Citrix Secure Browser is available in three ways:
- Citrix Workspace Cloud Secure Browser
is a fully hosted service from Citrix starting at
$20-per-user-per-month for securely delivering an unlimited number
of web apps.
- Citrix XenApp Secure Browser is
available as a perpetual license beginning at $150 per user or
device.
- Secure Browser Deployment Kit is free
for XenApp and XenDesktop (excluding XenDesktop VDI edition)
customers with active Subscription Advantage or software
maintenance. This option leverages Citrix Lifecycle Management
XenApp Secure Browser blueprint to streamline new deployments of
XenApp dedicated for publishing web apps.
Additional information on Secure Browser is available on
Citrix.com.
