Case Study: Avea achieves enhanced mobile security and centralized device management with Citrix XenMobile

Turkish telco enhances mobile device management with Citrix XenMobile

Avea, a leading Turkish mobile operator serving 14.5 million customers with about 3,000 employees, faced rising security and administration challenges as staff began using personally owned smartphones and tablets to access corporate resources. IT was overwhelmed by the need to protect sensitive data, automate updates, and prevent device loss while supporting a growing BYOD trend.

Avea selected Citrix XenMobile and, with local partner Sentra Bilgi Teknolojileri, completed an error‑free deployment in three months; IT now manages 2,700 devices. XenMobile’s centralized console, policy‑based provisioning, remote lock/wipe, certificates and app distribution streamlined administration, strengthened data protection, and enabled secure BYOD support with improved user satisfaction.
