Microsoft Intune Integration

The integration of Microsoft Intune with NetScaler Gateway provides a best-of-class application access and data protection solution offered by NetScaler Gateway and Intune.

You get the most complete suite of secure productivity apps, including email, calendar, contacts, note-taking, document editing, and remote access—all which can be centrally managed across different platforms. Intune and NetScaler Gateway integration provides world-class mobile device management (MDM) functionalities, while the Citrix Secure Access client side technology empowers these Intune enlightened applications to access corporate data and application securely through the NetScaler Gateway.

The integration allows NetScaler Gateway to pull compliance data from Intune, enabling conditional access policies. The conditional access policies give NetScaler Gateway a finer control on regulating the access based on device functionalities and so on. For example, an administrator can create a policy wherein only the devices with “Camera” disabled are granted access.

NetScaler Gateway supports Microsoft Authentication Library (MSAL) token authentication once the NetScaler Gateway virtual server is configured. Upon configuration, a mobile application wrapped with the Citrix Network-Only wrapper or SDK accesses NetScaler Gateway by using an MSAL token that the app can fetch directly from Microsoft Entra ID.

NetScaler Gateway customers can use micro VPN with Microsoft Endpoint Manager (Intune). Citrix micro VPN integration with Microsoft Endpoint Management enables your apps to access on-premises resources.

Citrix micro VPN technology provides an on-demand VPN that reduces data transfer costs and simplifies security, as the VPN tunnel isn’t always active. Instead, it’s only active when needed, which reduces risk and optimizes the performance of the device for a better user experience. This also helps improve mobile battery life. The micro VPN technology from NetScaler® provides mobile users with secure access to internal business resources while providing them with the best user experience.

Micro VPN is supported only for the following use cases:
