When it comes to security , now that workers are accessing corporate resources from more locations , a zero-trust approach is more important than ever . SMEs need a solution that asserts that trust between a user and access to corporate data must constantly be earned , not just at the time of authentication . The solutions should combine device management , access control , multifactor authentication , SSO , SSL VPN , web isolation , web proxy and more . With its Zero Trust Network Access ( ZTNA ), Citrix is uniquely positioned to deliver a single-vendor zero trust framework because we already offer industryleading products at all the layers of the Citrix Workspace technology stack with a unified management plane .
