Citrix is asking the questions, "are you being asked to do more with less,
like trying to overcome legacy VPN deployment barriers while reducing costs?
Is providing remote access for some users simply too expensive?" The company
is holding an interactive Webinar featuring security analyst Lisa Phifer
discuss how companies can deliver more effective access by augmenting
traditional VPNs with Citrix GoToMyPC Corporate.
Lisa has years of experience developing remote-access implementation
strategies, according to Citrix. Key points to be made during the seminar,

• Requires no capital investment and very little IT support
• Can be used with existing VPNs to expand remote access
• Can be a convenient alternative to in-house VPNs for companies just
getting started with secure remote access
