Ericom Software announced that the Ericom Shield zero trust remote browser isolation solution has been verified as Citrix Ready. To achieve this, Ericom Shield completed a rigorous verification process ensuring compatibility with Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops, Citrix Workspace, Citrix Managed Desktops, Citrix Gateway, Citrix Hypervisor and Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service on Azure providing confidence in joint solution compatibility.

The Citrix Ready program makes it easy for customers to identify complementary products and solutions that can enhance Citrix environments. Customers can be confident that Ericom Shield has successfully passed a series of tests established by Citrix, and can be trusted to work effectively with a number of Citrix solutions in order to protect endpoints and enterprise resources from web-based malware, bringing zero trust security to browsing, email, and downloads.

Ericom Shield zero trust remote browser isolation prevents ransomware, advanced web threats, and phishing attacks from reaching user endpoints by executing web content in a remote, isolated container. Whether users browse to a malicious site independently or by clicking a URL embedded in a phishing email, they are completely safe since no web content is ever executed directly on their device. Only safe rendering information is sent to a device's browser, providing a fully interactive, seamless user browsing experience. Websites launched from URLs in emails can be rendered in read-only mode to prevent users from entering credentials for additional phishing protection. Attached files are sanitized before being transmitted to endpoints, ensuring that malware within downloads cannot compromise users' devices.

"As a member of the Citrix Ready program, we are able to offer customers intelligent solutions that combine our zero trust remote browser isolation solution with a number of Citrix solutions, including Citrix Virtual Desktops, Citrix Workspace, and Citrix Managed Desktops," said David Canellos, President and CEO of Ericom Software. "The offering clearly demonstrates our intention to work closely with trusted partners like Citrix to provide the highest quality experience for our customers."

Available now, Ericom Shield supports Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service, Citrix Virtual Desktops, Citrix Workspace, Citrix Hypervisor, Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service on Azure, Citrix Managed Desktops, and Citrix Gateway, and can be found immediately in the Citrix Ready Marketplace.
