A herd of Surfai? A romp of otters a surfdom of Surfaceseseses? A crowd, a little kiss? I digress.

Each team is one of these areas for each player, and they in turn use it to sign in to the Azure portal and work in parallel with their teammates to crunch VM toward finish line.

But the Microsoft kindness to the showdown stage does not end. Oh no. Because they such a strong partner Citrix it only makes sense that organic, so many of the breakout sessions, which would focus on the joint development will be presented, sales value and support between these two tech rockstars.

XenMobile innovations Fuel Digital Business Transformation

XenMobile innovations Fuel Digital Business Transformation -

Citrix Synergy 2016 is in full swing in Las Vegas, and if you're lucky to be here, you can see firsthand the latest innovations XenMobile that help customers transform their businesses digitally

Secure mobility for the best BYO Experience

MAM first

Be honest :. may enroll your personal device with the IT department of your company? It's fine if you said, "No" - most users are not keen on handing over control of their phone - or other device -. IT

This is because the perception is that IT and the business (and seeing can eventually her boss), what they do, they speak and just about everything else, and feel that it itself is an invasion of their privacy. This is a topic for another discussion.

But since there is so much concern about the control of personal devices over the control of your company's intellectual property, you can instead talk about 10.3.5 XenMobile. Released earlier this month, this new version of XenMobile a mobile application management (MAM) provides -First approach, the mobile user compensates for enterprise security and information and IT alike.

With features many strong security and a rich user experience, MAM-First allows app-specific controls, such as Wipe / Lock an App, single sign-on for all applications in the container, the encrypted data in hibernation / in-use / in-motion and seamless provision of productivity efficiency with inter-app workflows all of the box.

MAM-First is a clear advantage for employees who are reluctant to register their personal device and install an MDM client on the device. But it's great for IT, too! It is a great advantage for companies that are not allowed an MDM client on the user's machine to install due to privacy requirements.

Password-Free Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM)

How many passwords you can remember at any given time? Some say that the average number of passwords, people may need to remember 7-15 rich It is no wonder that people forget or mix them. Trying to remember all that is just a hassle. It's especially hard if your business requires you to create a complex password (must be at least 8 characters three special characters, be a prime number and a hieroglyph!) To access data and applications only on the pain and confusion of more passwords added .

With XenMobile 10.3.5, you no longer have to worry about it. Once you have completed the application, you can use certificate-based authentication or TouchID, which eliminates the need for passwords

Note :. Your business, you can enroll in your company mobility management program, driven by XenMobile 10.3. 5. Once you sign in, you will no longer need your mobile username and password for your first loginbnor for each login after enrollment to remember.

One might ask: "How does it work?" at Synergy 2016 Citrix demonstrated with XenMobile 10.3.5, the concept of derived credentials for mobile users, the need eliminated for users of mobile user name and password or Active Directory remember a username and password. Citrix is ​​partnering with Entrust (Synergy Booth # 728E) and Intercede for the provision of derived credentials for mobile users who will come soon.

mobile threat detection

As an increasingly mobile workforce, we spend a lot of time on the Internet during the day. This increases the risk of valuable proprietary and confidential company information to lose on personal devices, including the data in the application and in motion. Mobile malware threats, malicious Wi-Fi networks and unpatched known vulnerabilities are all too common these days. Skycure (Synergy Booth # 726E) and Citrix have together to deliver a comprehensive mobile security solution with the combination of Skycure Mobile Threat Detection and Enterprise Mobility Management XenMobile security features.

Secure Android

Citrix and Samsung to continue to provide to protect information about the company on Android devices strong security controls. XenMobile customers the Citrix MDX container with a KNOX-enabled device will benefit between the two solutions from closer integration. For example, with XenMobile customers can enroll Bulk KNOX-enabled devices, the Samsung KNOX API

Secure productivity

Rethink Apps -. Creating Mini Apps without writing a single line of code

More and more companies realize the productivity benefits of mobile applications. And yet these same companies have limited application development resources to digitize common paper-based processes. Citrix will show the Secure Forms preview and customers share stories, to highlight the success of its use. With Secure Forms customers can digitize processes, including those that require access to legacy, backend systems -. And they get it all without writing a single line of code

Sure chat and collaborate with confidence

is the next killer application for email chat? People are more likely than email and the same behavior lead to chat when they are at work. Chat is fast, it is easy, it is mobile ... but is it safe? When we asked whether native or general chat application to share the right place company, the answer is obvious. If security is built into the instant messaging service, it would serve a much larger audience in different industries and companies.

companies who chat to be strong use made transactions, are pleased to see a demonstration of WorxChat preview that provides enterprise-class secure messaging and collaboration. WorxChat supports notifications indicate presence, typing, etc., and it is a Citrix MDX-enabled mobile app that uses the Microsoft Lync backend infrastructure. In this way, IT can roll WorxChat without existing investments in their Lync backend to change, while the advantages of providing a safe solution to win.

Cloud-First Innovation

XenMobile cloud adoption is growing rapidly as more companies prefer the day to day mobility management of devices, data and applications outsourcing. Citrix supports its customers with XenMobile cloud-based fulfillment a very secure and rich experience based provide mobility service, which devices include the management of user data and applications.

Better Together

SmartAccess

Customers will recognize the value of a complete mobile workplace soon benefit from Smart Access. With SmartAccess when XenMobile non-compliance with notes such as a jailbroken or rooted device SmartAccess will prevent the start with a HDX app (delivered by XenDesktop and XenApp) from Worx Home and to connect to the corporate network. SmartAccess relieves pain with a better management of secure access.

Two CTOs and a director of IoT Go on a stage - and blow My Mind

Two CTOs and a director of IoT Go on a stage - and blow My Mind -

When Chief Technology Officer Two (CTO) give a presentation, I expect a technical discussion, the questions examines how: What we certainly do the applications of the future supply? How can we simplify the application delivery process? And how we will integrate the emerging Internet of Things in this future word?

And while they often look to the future, I expect them to be impressive, but I do not expect anything mind blowing will happen.

So if two Citrix CTOs - Abhishek Chauhan and Christian Reilly - the questions examined in the listed above "The Application Delivery Continuum", I expected a Citrix Synergy session on the future of application delivery, security and to explore the development of the Internet of things.

And let me be clear, Christian can be personally quite entertaining, but it's not something I plan to see in one of his technical presentations.

So it was no surprise when they discuss key issues affecting businesses around the world on issues such as looking at how to overcome lost Internet connections, which can improve companies to protect their safety and valuable intellectual property , Abhishek focuses on how networking is better delivered as software and exploring new ways to lock the company and to protect against data loss. And then Christian researching the same questions from a secure application delivery perspective.

And then came the surprise.

When he appeared his technical look into the future to develop Christian, invited Chris Matthieu, Citrix Director, IoT Engineering, onto the stage. And I must say that Chris one of the most impressive mustaches sports that I have ever seen.

Christian-Chris

But I digress.

Before we had time, the 'stache, Chris to show all the non-programmers in the audience fully went admire - people like this PR pro -. how to create new workflow applications XenMobile Secure Forms

Then he showed us how Citrix Octoblu and its ability to use, almost to connect everything to strengthen the power of the sample Hospital app, and the information with an audience member iPhone sports a Singapore international number. Share Within minutes, Chris walked us through the process, as all set up in fashion, using workflow app, a PR man could understand.

all this provides a good summary of what we see at the end in 2016. #CitrixSynergy the day, the most important advantage of the cool Citrix technologies we see how every day non-technical people to digital type, how we live and work, to be able to transform.

is coercive power, the kind that can blow my mind.

Welcome to the future.
