IntraSystems Introduces Pandemic Business Continuity Services

The Coronavirus (COVID-19) has become a global pandemic and has impacted the workforce in many unforeseen and unexpected ways.  This has not only led to quarantines throughout the country, but has also led to many employees having to work remote.

In an effort to help our customers who may be in need of additional short-term services (due to employees having to work remotely), IntraSystems is offering Pandemic Business Continuity Services to ensure your organization has the tools to allow your teams to collaborate and share files seamlessly which, in turn, enable a productive remote workforce.  Additionally, cyber criminals are taking advantage of the newly remote workforce as many do not have the same security on their home networks as their corporate environment.  Many organizations haven’t deployed the right technologies or corporate security policies to ensure that all corporate-owned or corporate-managed devices have the exact same security protections implemented – regardless of whether they’re connected to an enterprise network or an open home Wi-Fi network.  To learn more, see Cybersecurity Awareness Key Strategies and Cybersecurity Awareness Recommendations to help your organization.

Please see below for a variety of tailored solutions from IntraSystems that will allow employees to remain productive while also being secure.

Expand Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops (CVAD)

This is best for organizations who already have the available infrastructure or have already migrated to the cloud. You can quickly expand your CVAD environment to cater to additional load.

Remote PC Access

This enables physical desktops to be remotely accessible – like virtual desktop. This would deploy Virtual Delivery Agent (VDA) to physical desktops to use in conjunction with an existing CVAD environment or new CVAD service.  This is a great option if the additional infrastructure for VDI is not available.

Use Citrix Cloud on Public Cloud

Citrix Cloud is an ideal solution for organizations with an on-prem CVAD environment without the available infrastructure or organizations that do not have a CVAD environment. Either Citrix Managed Desktops (Azure only) or the CVAD service can enable organizations to quickly ramp up VDI workloads on a public cloud of your choice.

Phishing Attacks

Hackers have created new attacks based on the intense public interest in this virus. One of the most common of these attacks is an email impersonation attack (i.e. from WHO or CDC).

SSL VPN & Remote Access

Many employees are needing remote access today that require a quick, flexible, reliable, and completely secure way to connect to internal business applications, information, and network resources.
