Citrix Access Platform for Government
Protecting critical infrastructure takes a combined and coordinated effort
Today more than ever, government depends on the ability to access, share and act on vital information—across agencies, functions and borders. For these agencies, centralized application computing is an essential requirement to support multiple branch locations. Many agencies also need to communicate with other agencies, often across state and national boundaries, adding further challenges to delivering application content over costly wide area network (WAN) links. Content privacy and security are essential to ensure confidential information is not compromised.
The Citrix Access Platform provides public servants with seamless, secure, on-demand access to the mission-critical applications and information required for effective response to emergencies, recovery from disasters and delivery of basic services. Agencies can increase worker productivity and efficiency, improve citizens’ satisfaction and keep the costs of IT infrastructure low. For example, from the centralized and scalable Citrix Presentation Server™, applications and information are easily Web-enabled and delivered to any device, at any location, over any connection—including low-bandwidth and wireless. And Citrix® NetScaler® application delivery systems are able to dramatically reduce bandwidth consumption and server load, improving application performance and reducing infrastructure costs.
