Citrix Kick Starts Public Sector Momentum with Citrix Mobility Mobile Solutions Bundle with XenMobile -

2013 is all about mobility for the public sector. We are in the midst of a powerful convergence of need - the need for public sector organizations to do more with less - and a growing consumer demand for (and some say dependence on) connectivity anytime, anywhere. These factors, as well as federal, state and local guidelines and policy tools, help to put the wind behind the sails of the mobile movement.

And while the public recognizes and has set his sights on achieving the great mobility of large-scale benefits provides agencies - cost savings, improved productivity, more great competitive advantage in recruiting and retaining the best and brightest and COOP strategies improved, to name a few - the challenges remain. Federal agencies and state and local governments continue to struggle daily with familiar but formidable issues -. data security, authentication and management of devices, applications and network access, to name a few

To date, we have seen two approaches to solving these challenges

• Securing and managing all devices participants, applications and data with a complex set of point solutions, leading to management headaches and security silos
• Require the employees to use different devices for different activities, leading to user frustration

Organizations, realizing that these options do not represent a sustainable solution, the search for new approaches. More and more analysts and similar professionals are citing the need for a corporate approach to mobility management that protects the underlying applications and confidential data regardless of ownership of the unit, while allowing access to existing Windows-based web and applications from any device.

Citrix is ​​at the forefront of this movement - known as the management of enterprise mobility (EMM). Today we are pleased to present the first end-to-end solution EMM industry -. Citrix Mobile Solutions Bundle with XenMobile
