Citrix Secure Access client
With the Citrix Secure Private Access client you can now access all private apps including TCP/UDP and HTTPS/HTTP apps either using a native browser or a native client application via the Citrix Secure Access client running on your machine.
With the additional support of TCP/UDP applications within Citrix Secure Private Access, you can now eliminate the dependency on a traditional VPN solution to provide access to all private apps for remote users.
