Citrix for Defence,
Built for CMMC and CPCSC.

Secure Citrix enclaves that keep controlled information off endpoints for defence and aerospace suppliers in the U.S. and Canada, designed, delivered and managed by Altanora.

How Does Citrix Help Defence Suppliers Protect Controlled Information?

Citrix keeps controlled unclassified information (CUI) and export-controlled data inside a secure enclave, so users work with it through an encrypted session while nothing is stored on their device. That makes Citrix a proven foundation for CMMC in the U.S. and CPCSC in Canada, both built on NIST SP 800-171 controls.

Altanora builds Citrix enclaves on-premises, in Azure Government or AWS GovCloud, and on sovereign Canadian infrastructure. Aerospace and defence is one of the sectors where we run active Citrix-funded projects. Eligible projects may qualify for Citrix Funded Pro Services, with Citrix covering some or all of the services, subject to Citrix approval.

Defence Challenges Citrix Solves

Protect controlled information without slowing your engineers down.

🔒

Keep CUI off endpoints

Users work inside a Citrix enclave, so controlled data never lands on laptops or home PCs.

📜

CMMC and CPCSC readiness

A defined enclave shrinks your assessment scope and maps to NIST SP 800-171 and ITSP.10.171 controls.

🛡

Zero Trust device checks

deviceTRUST and Citrix SecurAccess ZTNA verify device, network and location throughout every session.

🌐

FIPS-capable gateways

NetScaler FIPS appliances provide validated encryption at the edge of your enclave.

💻

Secure engineering workspaces

Citrix SecurSpaces gives developers and engineers browser-based environments with zero code on endpoints.

📡

Air-gapped options

Citrix DaaS Local runs fully on-premises with offline license activation for disconnected sites.

From Our Clients

“With the Citrix licensing deadline approaching, this was a high stress, high risk transition. Altanora turned what could have been a major disruption into a complete non-event.”
Steve Vinnitsky, President & CEO, Netintegrity

Netintegrity moved to a new Citrix subscription and Citrix Cloud before a hard deadline, with zero user disruption, and now relies on Altanora for ongoing support.

How Altanora Helps Defence Suppliers

2026 Citrix Evangelist Partner of the Year, with 70+ certified engineers across North America.

Scope and design

We define your enclave boundary, map controls to NIST SP 800-171 or ITSP.10.171 and choose the right hosting.

Build and harden

We deploy Citrix, NetScaler, deviceTRUST and SecurSpaces with hardened baselines and documentation for assessors. Eligible projects may qualify for Citrix Funded Pro Services, with Citrix covering some or all of the services, subject to Citrix approval.

Operate and evidence

We run your enclave 24/7 and keep patching, monitoring and audit evidence current through Citrix Managed Services.

Defence FAQ

Can Citrix be used in CMMC environments?

Yes. Citrix is widely used to build CUI enclaves because apps and data stay in a controlled environment and nothing is left on the user's device. Citrix says its products help address 13 of the 17 CMMC domains.

Can Citrix help with CPCSC in Canada?

Yes. CPCSC is based on ITSP.10.171, which aligns with NIST SP 800-171. A Citrix enclave helps Canadian defence suppliers contain controlled information, and Altanora builds enclaves that serve both CPCSC and CMMC.

Is Citrix FedRAMP authorized?

Yes. Citrix Cloud Government holds a FedRAMP Moderate authorization. For higher sensitivity, Citrix can run on-premises or in Azure Government or AWS GovCloud.

Can Citrix run air-gapped?

Yes. Citrix DaaS Local runs entirely on-premises, with offline license activation for isolated environments.

What is the status of CMMC in 2026?

CMMC Phase 1 self-assessments began in November 2025. In July 2026 the planned Phase 2 certification requirements were suspended pending a review, but DFARS 252.204-7012 and NIST SP 800-171 still apply.
