The Juniper Networks NetScreen
Secure Access Series of SSL VPNs appliances enables
small to multi-national
organisations to deploy cost effective remote access,
extranet and intranet security. Users can access the organisations
network and applications from any standard Web browser. The use of SSL eliminates the need for client software
deployment, changes to internal servers, and costly ongoing
maintenance.
The NetScreen Secure Access appliances also
offer sophisticated partner/customer extranet features
that enable controlled access to differentiated users
and groups with no infrastructure changes, no DMZ deployments, and no software agents. This
functionality also allows companies to secure access to
the corporate intranet, so that administrators can restrict
access to different employee, contractor or visitor populations,
based on the resources that they need. Client computers
can be checked at the beginning and throughout the session
to verify an acceptable security posture by checking the
registry for pre-defined files, processes and ports, with
MD5 hash checksum validation to verify the authenticity
of the applications. Remote users can authenticate by
two-factor authentication servers such as Defender.
