I'm looking for some guidance on the best practices for internal employee access patterns, specifically for workloads hosted on EKS or EC2. We're a large organization with over 1000 employees, and we've transitioned from a completely on-premises setup that relied on Citrix for remote access. However, we found Citrix to be quite slow and inconvenient. We're now exploring modern yet secure access solutions. One option we considered was implementing SSO with VPN. Are there any other recommendations or options we should explore?

I would suggest looking into a zero trust model. It's becoming increasingly popular because it enhances security by ensuring that no one has implicit trust, regardless of where they are connecting from. Also, check out AWS AppStream and Verified Access as potential solutions based on your requirements.
Have you considered using AWS Systems Manager's Session Manager? It provides secure and efficient access to your instances without needing to open inbound ports or manage SSH keys. Just keep in mind that it's different from Citrix, so it won't be a direct replacement.
