About Secure Remote Access


 Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) have been developed to allow the use of a public network, such as the Internet, for secure communication. There are essentially, two types of VPN;

  1. Site to site VPN
  2. Remote User to Site VPN

In order to overcome the proprietary nature of early VPN's the IEEE came up with the IPSec standard to enable interoperability of VPN gateways. This standard has emerged to be the main commercial standard. The IPSec standard normally uses the Triple DES algorithm for encryption. However more recently a new standard has emerged - AES, which is a more efficient algorithm. Any VPN requires quite heavy processing power to encrypt and decrypt data.

Using IPSec requires the remote client to have software loaded locally, which encrypts and decrypts all data at the client. The gateway device does the encryption and decryption at the remote site. The deployment of IPSec client software to all remote users has created management issues. In 2003 we have seen the development of "clientless" VPN's for remote users, based upon the Secure Socket Layer encryption used to secure web pages. These are ideal for some simple, quick, secure remote user access.

Secure Remote Access Products


AppGate Mobility Server

AppGate Mobility Server is an easy, secure and cost-efficient way of making information accessible via mobile devices, without the need of rebuilding infrastructure.

AppGate Security Server

The AppGate Security Server can act as the core of the security solution. AppGate Security Server unifies all the necessary security elements such as authentication, authorisation, encryption, access control, client control etc. into one easy-to-manage, comprehensive solution.

AppGate USB Client

The AppGate USB client is designed to be used on personal computers when connecting to an AppGate Security Server. It is a client that does not rely on, or use, the ordinary operating system on the machine. It will execute in a secure and trusted environment regardless of the configuration of the original operating system on the computer. In addition, it does not access or store any data on the local hard disks on the PC and will therefore not leave any traces or residues when the session to the AppGate server is closed.

Aventail EX-1600

The award-winning Aventail EX-1600 SSL VPN appliance provides employees and business partners with convenient clientless access to required network applications and resources from any Internet-enabled device, anywhere. Your users increase productivity with fast, transparent secure access to a full range of critical Web and client/server applications—including e-mail and collaboration programs such as Microsoft Outlook and Lotus Notes, as well as applications from SAP, PeopleSoft, and Oracle. They even get native access to Windows Terminal Services and Citrix.

Aventail EX-2500

The Aventail EX-2500 offers your large enterprise the high-availability and scalability required to increase productivity while maintaining security and lowering costs. And, because the appliance comes standard with all access methods and feature add-ons, including Aventail Secure Desktop, Aventail Connect, Aventail OnDemand, and Aventail Mobile, it is the most cost-effective enterprise solution on the market.

Aventail EX-750

The Aventail EX-750 is the perfect entry-level solution that grows with your needs. Suitable for up to 50 concurrent users, the EX-750 is used within organisations for a wide range of demanding assignments, including branch office/remote access, test systems and emergency backup access. Like it’s big brother the EX-750 uses the same smart SSL VPN platform for single application access with complete security and end-point control.

Passcode OnDemand

Passcode OnDemand delivers simple, quick and cost effective ‘two factor’ authentication without having to carry a new device. It is ideal for anyone who needs occasional secure access to your SSL VPN, Extranet or Web Portal.

SA 2000

The Juniper Networks Secure Access 2000 (SA 2000) SSL VPN enables small- to medium-sized companies to deploy cost-effective remote and extranet access, as well as intranet security. Users can access the corporate network and applications from any standard Web browser. The SA 2000 uses SSL, the security protocol found in all standard Web browsers, as a secure access transport mechanism. The use of SSL eliminates the need for client-software deployment, changes to internal servers, and costly ongoing maintenance.

SA 4000

The Juniper Networks Secure Access 4000 (SA 4000) SSL VPNs enable mid-to-large-sized organizations to provide cost-effective remote and partner extranet access from any standard Web browers. Based on the award-winning IVE platform, the SA 4000 appliances feature rich access-privilege management functionality, that can be used to create secure customer/partner extranets with no infrastructure changes, no DMZ deployments, and no software agents. This functionality also allows the enterprise to secure access to the corporate intranet, so that different employee and visitor populations can utilize exactly the resources they need, while adhering to enterprise-security policies. Built-in compression for all traffic types speeds performance, and SSL acceleration is available via a software license for more demanding environments.

SA 6000

The Juniper Networks Secure Access 6000 (SA 6000) SSL VPN appliances is designed for medium to large enterprises and features best-in-class performance, scalability, and redundancy for organizations with high-volume secure access and authorization requirements. The SA 6000 hardware platform is designed to scale to the largest enterprise deployments and to optimize application delivery, with available options that include redundant hot swappable hard disks, power supplies and fans, as well as GBIC-based multiple Ethernet ports for redundant or meshed configurations. The SA 6000 appliance also features a state-of-the-art SSL acceleration chipset to speed CPU-intensive encrypt/decrypt processes, as well as built in compression for all traffic.

SA 6000 SP

The Juniper Networks Secure Access 6000 SP is the industry's first SSL VPN platform with comprehensive virtualization designed to enable Service Providers (SPs) to deliver network-based SSL VPN services to multiple enterprises of any size from a single appliance/cluster. Combining Juniper Networks expertise in working with Service Providers with the industry-leading Instant Virtual Extranet (IVE) platform, the Secure Access 6000 SP platform provides SPs with a sophisticated, end-to-end virtualization framework that is optimized for highly available and highly scalable network-based SSL VPN managed services.

SA 700

The Juniper Networks Secure Access 700 (SA 700) SSL VPN appliance provides small to medium enterprises a secure, cost-effective way to deploy remote access to the corporate network. Because the SA 700 uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to provide encrypted transport, it enables instant remote access from just a Web browser. This clientless architecture eliminates the high cost of installing, configuring, and maintaining client software on every device, significantly reducing the total cost of ownership versus traditional VPN solutions. SSL delivery also eliminates the Network Address Translation (NAT) and firewall traversal issues encountered with traditional remote access products, allowing your remote users reliable and ubiquitous access from external networks such as home or hotels.
