SonicWall launches SSL-VPN

SonicWall unveiled the SSL-VPN 2000, to improve remote access
for small and medium businesses. With this product, mobile employees require
only a standard Web browser to launch a Web portal that is unique to each user.
From this portal, the user has secure access to e-mail, files, applications and
internal Web sites.

For more powerful capabilities, SonicWall NetExtender
technology, an ActiveX client downloaded transparently via the Web browser,
enables access to any TCP/IP-based application residing on the user's laptop
plus flexible network access depending on policies set by the network
administrator.

Using ActiveX or Java components, NetExtender also provides
access to applications installed on desktop machines or hosted on an application
server. It allows full remote

control of remote desktop or server machines and supports terminal services, VNC,
Telnet and SSH.

An intuitive graphical user interface guides the
administrator through the installation process. It also provides granular policy
configuration controls for centralized, fine-grained management over individual
user access to specific network resources. It is priced at Rs 1,75,872 (plus
taxes as

applicable).
