Citrix Password Manager™
Strengthen Application Security and Speed User Logons Without Application Development
Citrix Password Manager
TM increases application
security for all applications, whether delivered by Presentation Server
or deployed to the desktop. Organizations may now centralize password
management with IT for greater control, while users experience the
productivity gains of fast, automated logons to Web, Windows, and
host-based applications.
Introducing Password Manager 4.5
Password Manager 4.5 marks the launch of the new Password Manager Product Line:
- Password Manager for Presentation Server
- Password Manager Advanced Edition
- Password Manager Enterprise Edition
Password
Manager for Presentation Server provides single sign-on access
regardless of how or where users connect to their applications, and
enables users to reset their own Windows password or unlock their
account through Citrix Web Interface. Federated logons are now possible
to all types of trusted-partner applications (Windows, Web, and
host-based), delivered by Presentation Server and accessed through Web
Interface.
Password Manager has also been enhanced with greater application
compatibility and extensible application definitions to make
SSO-enabling applications quicker and more efficient. Administration
may now be conducted by Active Directory Group providing greater
flexibility and easier deployment, the process of changing passwords
has been simplified and immediate confirmation provided, and users with
more than one Windows account may now leverage their SSO credentials
across their multiple accounts. For Government and security-conscious
buyers, Password Manager is currently in the process of Common Criteria
Certification.
Introducing the Citrix/Hewlett-Packard Identity and Access Management Solution
Citrix and HP have created a comprehensive Identity and Access
Management solution that combines Citrix Password Manager with the HP
OpenView Identity and Access Management suite. The Citrix/HP solution
enables enterprises to provide complete, secure information access to
employees, customers and partners worldwide.
Introducing an Opportunity to Solve Your Business and IT Challenges
Password Manager fundamentally changes the typical approach for
managing multiple passwords, centralizing password management and
moving this important capability into the hands of the IT organization.
The result?
- Application security is strengthened – Password
Manager eliminates the need for employees to track multiple passwords
by automating password management and centralizing it with IT.
- User access is simplified
– The logon process is fully automated - users simply log on once and
Password Manager authenticates the user to all other password-protected
applications.
- Regulatory compliance is facilitated -
Legislation such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability
Act (HIPAA) imposes stringent requirements for controlling which
individuals can access which information and for protecting the privacy
of consumers. Learn more about achieving HIPAA compliance.
- Help desk calls decrease
– With Password Manager, routine password-related events are automated
and made invisible to the end user. Users may also reset their own
primary Windows password – eliminating many time consuming and costly
help desk calls.
- Platform support broadens – Password
Manager supports Windows, Web and host-based applications, whether the
applications are delivered by Presentation Server or deployed to the
desktop.
- Implementation becomes easy – With powerful
configuration tools, a task-based management console and no scripting
required, Password Manager is easily configured in your existing
environment.
As a stand-alone password management solution, delivered by
Presentation Server or the Citrix Access Suite, or integrated with
third-party products such as Strong Authentication, User Provisioning,
and Context Management, Password Manager increases application
security, speeds application delivery, simplifies user access, and
facilitates regulatory compliance.
