Citrix solutions help financial service organizations decrease the time and cost of protecting and delivering confidential client data. IT teams can help achieve corporate objectives by safeguarding IT assets and data using features that guarantee improved security and and are available at every critical point in the delivery infrastructure, from the datacenter to the desktop.

On the desktop

Citrix XenDesktop

Citrix XenDesktop desktop virtualization and on-demand applications by XenApp allow bankers, tellers and agents to access desktops and applications from any location or device. For example, bankers can work at a mobile kiosk in a public airport and have access to financial data. Because these resources reside in the datacenter, IT can manage them with intelligent automation of measures based on the access context. By centralizing desktop and application management with XenDesktop, financial services organizations can reduce total operational costs by up to 40 percent.

GoToWebinar

GoToWebinar provides the ability for managers to present unlimited webinars to workers at branches and other remote locations with up to 1,000 attendees.

In the datacenter

Citrix NetScaler

Citrix NetScaler protects against application and network-layer threats with integrated web application firewall and Denial of Service (DoS) attack prevention services. NetScaler also provides secure application access through an AAA (authentication, authorization and accounting) and SSL VPN module and advanced logging and auditing features to monitor web application activity. These built-in capabilities enable organizations to meet their unique security objectives and Financial Services Authority (FSA) requirements, such as Sarbanes Oxley (SOX).

Citrix XenServer

Citrix XenServer allows IT teams to dynamically add servers to a resource pool by creating new virtual machines instead of adding physical servers. Security is never compromised because the virtual machines are completely isolated from one another on each physical server that is used. This is especially important when managing and storing sensitive financial data.

Citrix Branch Repeater

Citrix Branch Repeater radically improves user productivity and user experience by accelerating the delivery of all desktops and applications to branch users. With Branch Repeater physical and virtual appliances, financial services organizations can consolidate servers into the datacenter and reduce server footprint at branch offices. Branch Repeater reduces bandwidth requirements in each office location and accelerates desktop virtualization and application delivery ROI by supporting more users and connections over existing WAN bandwidth.

Citrix Access Gateway

Citrix Access Gateway provides IT with granular application-level control while providing users with remote access from anywhere. It gives IT administrators a single point to manage access control and limit actions within sessions based on both user identity and the endpoint device, providing better application security, data protection and management. Access Gateway establishes a secure, encrypted connection between the client and datacenter to ensure that desktops, applications and financial data are accessed securely from anywhere.
