Cyberoam intros On-Appliance SSL VPN

 MUMBAI, INDIA:Cyberoam announced the introduction of on-appliance SSL VPN on its UTM appliances. The SSL VPN eliminates the limitations of IPSec VPNs which require time consuming client installations and lack the flexibility required to deliver secure, remote access to employees, customers and partners in today’s business world.

VPNC certified Cyberoam SSL VPN with its network extension client is an effective replacement for IPSec. The certification is also a confirmation that Cyberoam works with a wide variety of web portals, browsers and dynamic websites, meeting the challenges of real-world usability and compatibility faced by other SSL VPNs.

According to Abhilash Sonwane, VP—Product Management, Cyberoam, “Today’s business environment is becoming highly mobile and open. Employees are extending their workday by carrying work home, telecommuters are rising, road warriors are accessing the corporate network from multiple locations and devices. On the other side, corporate networks are becoming more open with access to customers and partners to the corporate extranet. This calls for a highly flexible remote access solution. SSL VPN fills the need and we are happy to announce that our Cyberoam UTM range now offers SSL VPN over the same platform..”

Cyberoam SSL VPN offers web-based and client-based access, allowing secure access to internal applications through any endpoint device from any location, by any authorized person. It achieves this by focusing on the ‘user’ and not the ‘device’ for authentication. The Cyberoam SSL VPN is platform, device and location-independent. It also ensures that corporate firewalls do not block remote access, ensuring business continuity.

At the same time, Cyberoam’s identity-based access policies allow administrators to limit access to certain applications or offer full access based on the user identity and work profile.

Certified by ICSA, CheckMark and VPNC, Cyberoam has also been named the Emerging security Vendor of the Year by Frost and Sullivan.
