1 Background
Due to the End of Life (EOL) support of Citrix XenApp 6.5. Mirvac’s Group Technology has engaged in
upgrading its Citrix Infrastructure. The external access component user experience has changed, but the
fundamentals of signing-in remains the same.
The RSA token will NO longer be used as it’s preferred Multi Factor Authentication (MFA) tool and has been
replaced by Symantec VIP. This introduces a more advanced security layer and easier user experience
when signing-in to Mirvac’s Citrix externally.
The web address https://portal.mirvac.com/my.policy to access the old Citrix environment will also cease to
function.
You will also need to be enrolled with Mirvac’s Symantec VIP. The next page tells you how to get enrolled to
Mirvac's Symantec VIP.
