Contextual security is key to enabling business mobility

Citrix customers adopting mobile workspaces rely on Citrix to protect data, manage and enforce policies, and ensure enterprise-class security for today’s mobile workforce.

 

Sixty-two percent of organizations say mobile computing makes security more difficult and 47 percent experienced security breaches from a compromised mobile device.

Citrix announced customers in financial services and healthcare who are expanding their use of mobile workspaces, leveraging mobile workspace apps, delivery infrastructure and a comprehensive “contextually-aware” security architecture that spans the complete range of Citrix products.

Citrix combines market-leading virtualization, mobility management, networking and cloud services technologies to offer a mobile workspace solution that ensures enterprise-grade security and compliance without compromising end-user freedom and productivity. Using Citrix mobile workspaces, people can work anywhere with the right level of secure access across any device, network and cloud.

According to Enterprise Strategy Group, 62 percent of organizations say mobile computing makes security more difficult and 47 percent experienced security breaches from a compromised mobile device1. Forrester Research, Inc. says that recent high-profile attacks have had an impact on enterprise security: 49 percent of enterprises say these attacks have increased their attention on the security of their intellectual property and corporate secrets2. In practice, security is not keeping pace with today’s threat landscape, causing businesses to fundamentally shift the way they look at security and take a proactive approach to protecting their data. Organizations require a mobility infrastructure that incorporates security from the start with the flexibility to define, enforce and monitor polices across user profiles and needs, devices, networks and clouds to ensure that all business information, apps and services are secure and compliant.

Citrix mobile workspace apps and delivery infrastructure provide a comprehensive level of contextual security, personalization and ease-of-use for every individual and situation. By combining a policy-driven approach to information security, identity management, authentication, data protection and compliance, Citrix customers are taking a proactive approach to security without compromising experience and productivity: 

Southcoast Health System Focuses on Data Privacy while Enabling Mobility: 

Clinician mobility is essential to keeping our business running efficiently, but we also need a solution that protects our patients’ data regardless of where or how our staff is accessing it. Citrix mobile workspace solutions help us proactively manage our data and meet regulatory mandates so our staff and our patients can be confident that personal data is safe and our clinicians are connected to the information they need to improve care outcomes.

First Key Mortgage Achieves Security While Enabling Business Growth:

In our business, we need our main focus to be the customer, not managing technology. We need a single, end-to-end solution that addresses our biggest security concerns – such as field access for our employees to clients’ financial information – while also enabling superior availbility from any device. Mobile workspace solutions from Citrix give us the freedom to set the policies that provide the control we need while also empowering us to deliver mobility to our employees with a great user experience.

Consulate Health Embraces Consumerization While Keeping Patient Data Private: 

Protecting any personal health information that we manage is certainly one of our top priorities. The Citrix environment gives us the ability to very quickly grant, rescind and track access to the applications that contain personally identifiable information. We can also limit the amount of data that is saved to any specific hard drive, and thereby limit access to only those users who log in to our environment through the Citrix workspace.
