GOVCounty government
Mission-critical county services, available anywhere and secured by identity.
- Challenge
- A county government needed its mission-critical services to be available to staff remotely, without putting those systems or the data in them at risk.
- Requirements
- Remote access to mission-critical applications for authorized staff, a verified sign-in for every session, and applications and data kept on infrastructure the county controls.
- Solution
- YourColo designed and deployed Citrix on Nutanix infrastructure to deliver the county's applications and desktops as secure remote sessions, with Okta as the identity platform for single sign-on and multi-factor login.
- Outcome
- Authorized staff reach the services they need from wherever they work, every sign-in is verified by Okta, and the applications and data stay on infrastructure the county controls.
Questions
Common questions
Can YourColo host it, or does it run on our hardware?
Either. We can host it on Nutanix infrastructure in our environment, or build and manage it on yours.
Does it work on Macs, tablets and Chromebooks?
Yes. The Citrix Workspace app runs on Windows, Mac, iOS, Android and ChromeOS, and the desktop looks the same on all of them.
Do users need a VPN?
No. Citrix brokers each session securely, so there is no VPN to install and nothing exposed to the internet.
