General Availability: Citrix SecurSpaces Flex

Citrix SecurSpaces Flex is now generally available as a Citrix-managed service within Citrix Platform Flex that delivers secure Linux workspaces for development teams. Delivered through Citrix Cloud, this service provides hosted developer environments with no customer infrastructure to stand up or maintain. In this release, Citrix SecurSpaces Flex is applicable only to Azure environments. For more information, see Citrix SecurSpaces Flex overview.

New and enhanced features

  • Citrix-managed control plane — Citrix operates the Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) and Azure Cosmos DB infrastructure.
  • Workspace sizing by persona — Light (2 vCPU / 8 GB RAM), Medium (4 vCPU / 16 GB RAM), and Heavy (8 vCPU / 32 GB RAM), each mapped to a published Platform Flex credit rate.
  • Decoupled workspace size and template — A single workspace template can be paired with any compute profile on demand.
  • Multi-region support — A primary Azure region is provisioned at deployment time, and secondary regions can be added later by your Citrix team.
  • Version management — Citrix manages version updates for your environment, including scheduling of maintenance windows.
  • Network connectivity — Connect workspaces to customer-owned systems via Azure vNET peering or VPN gateway.
  • Native DLP, RBAC, and audit logging — Built-in controls for data loss prevention, access governance, and compliance.
  • Sandboxed AI agent support — AI coding agents run inside workspaces under the same control plane and policy framework as human developer sessions.
  • Platform Flex credit model — Citrix SecurSpaces Flex credits draw from the same pool as Citrix DaaS Flex, with no separate procurement cycle.
