Strong Authentication for Citrix Access Gateway

For Citrix customers concerned by rising security threats and the weakness of password authentication, ActivIdentity provides a strong authentication solution fully integrated with Citrix Access Gateway to enable secure, easy and cost-efficient access to remote applications and resources.

With 4TRESS™ AAA Server, two-factor authentication is required for access to Citrix Access Gateway: users need to enter their PIN code and the one-time password generated by a security token.

Features and benefits

• Enhanced security and compliance – Enforces two-factor authentication: something the user has (the token or smart card) and something the user knows (the PIN code). Addresses IT security and compliance requirements by preventing unauthorized access to information.
• Ease of deployment – 4TRESS AAA Server integrates seamlessly with Citrix Access Gateway and leverages your existing directory to store all user and device information (there is no data duplication).
• Reduced Administrative Costs – Lower cost of issuing and managing tokens and smart cards through web-based Help Desk and Self Help services.
• Return on investment – The ActivIdentity Strong Authentication solution can be used to secure access to a wide variety of VPN, Dial-Up and Web applications, including Citrix Access Gateway.
• Future-proof – Smooth migration to multi-application smart cards or USB tokens as the security requirements of your organization evolve (strong authentication for Windows and network login, data security and digital signature, and more).
