Citrix Remote Access (VDI)

Citrix Remote Access (VDI) portal is the preferred method of remote access using any Windows PC, Mac computer or tablet. This portal utilizes Citrix Receiver to access a virtualized Windows Desktop internally on the Stony Brook Medicine network, allowing users to securely access most applications (Cerner PowerChart, Kronos, PACS, Remote Desktop…etc).
