Hey buddy; Hardening Citrix depends on what type of OS you're running Citrix over. For a Windows based server, you'll need to deal with normal Windows hardening techniques. Same applies to Unix, and on goes the story. Citrix is merely a software package (large one) running on an underlying operating system. Always stay up to date on packages for MetaFrame, and NFuse, etc, whatever Citrix product that applies. Make certain you also research how to better architect your Citrix solution, such as using Secure ICA to encrypt the remote traffic. Look into Secure Gateway, etc. For some real substance, check out these sites, they will help you in one way or another: http://www.citrix.com That's obvious, but they have such a vast knowledgebase! http://www.thethin.net/ http://www.thinplanet.com/ http://www.xs4all.nl/~soundtcr/ http://www.aspisland.com/ http://www.securecomputing.com/index.cfm?skey=1158 There are plenty more sites, do a good Google search. One of the sites escapes my mind right now, but mail me back and I'll hunt it down for you.
