Strong Authentication for Citrix Password Manager

For Citrix Password Manager customers concerned with the security risk of protecting all their SSO-enabled applications with a single password, ActivIdentity provides a strong authentication solution that adds two-factor security to a Citrix single sign on deployment.

With ActivClient®, the market-leading smart card middleware, Citrix Password Manager requires two-factor authentication (insertion of the smart card or USB token, and typing of the PIN code) before enabling single sign on to applications.
