i use csg 1.1 in a dmz with sta etc etc.. we are in the process or a company wide ethical (sp) attack.... i'm waiting to see what they come up with as i have left a hole for them = to find... if they don't find my deliberate hole (1494tcp nat'd to a box) then i'll = rethink the "attack" but it should show the strength of CSG 1.1 Roly -----Original Message----- From: Stansel, Paul [mailto:Paul.Stansel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, 9 October 2002 10:34 PM To: 'citrixse@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'; 'thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [THIN] A question from my security guys about exposure Setup: MF XPe, Nfuse 1.7 with CSG, no SSL relay configured. Most users = only have access to published apps, though some have desktops. We are using = a mix of ICA web clients and full PN clients, though will be moving to 99% = web clients. Scenario: We have an at-home worker who has a PC that is direct = connected to the Internet through a cable-modem or DSL (take your pick). The worker = has a VPN connection to our network. Their PC at home has been back-doored. Now when the worker connects through the VPN, they are opening a = connection to our network for whoever back-doored them. Now change the scenario, such that instead of a VPN connection, the = worker is connecting to us via a Citrix connection over the web. Their PC = still has the back-door on it. What is the equivelant exposure under this scenario? Can the person that controls the back-door hijack the Citrix session somehow or gain access to the resources on the network while the connection is active? I am guessing the exposure is not as great since = that workstation isn't truly a node on the network as it would be under a VPN solution, but I am curious as to what other risks may exist and how we = can safeguard against them if they exist.
