The Click-Down Citrix

How can you enable zero trust while permitting the proper multi-factor authentication that depends on a person’s location, device, connection, and role? That is where nFactor comes in! In this episode, we chat with a couple of product team members about how nFactor can require different authentication factors based on factors such as these. 

Image buildout and lifecycle management is a critical part of any delivery infrastructure. The operating systems, applications, and user data all need continuous updates to meet business requirements and security standards. How can enterprise admins effectively tackle this challenge? In this episode we chat with one of our veteran delivery architects on how Citrix App Layering can significantly improve IT efficiency with image lifecycle management activities. 

Citrix consulting teams are continually working with the world’s largest organizations on demanding, mission-critical projects across all major verticals and use cases. The pandemic accelerated digital transformation and cloud projects and there were many lessons learned along the way. Lessons on security, performance, and other key topics.

Over the past decade there has been a lot of changes on how to deliver virtual apps and desktops to end users. From MetaFrame to XenApp to Virtual Apps and Desktops service, Citrix has provided a secure way of delivering remote solutions to end users. So what is managed DaaS? How does this differ from Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service? Citrix managed DaaS provides you with a quick and easy way to deliver virtual desktops to your end users that is fully managed by Citrix. This means that you can deploy virtual apps and desktops in minutes even if you don’t have your own cloud tenant. 

In this episode of The Click-Down, we invite Steve Beals, Senior Technical Marketing Architect, to talk about managed DaaS. We discuss the differences between on prem solutions, Citrix DaaS, and managed DaaS. We talk about when you should each and the features and functionalities that Managed DaaS has.

In the past couple of years, IT administrators have had to completely re-evaluate the way they handle security. Not only have the attacks become more complex and persistent, but the perimeter that needs to be secured has exponentially grown as users work remotely.

So have enterprises adapted to this security landscape? What is zero-trust network access? How does Citrix help? In this episode we invite Dorsan DeLisle, Lead Sales Engineer, to talk about all of this and much more. He shares what his customers are doing and how Citrix has been able to help.
