Strong Protection with a Low Total Cost of Ownership
SmartGate provides flexible security for even the most demanding critical infrastructure requirements. The advanced SmartGate server software product allows companies to rapidly deploy a VPN solution capable of supporting thousands of simultaneous users. SmartGate enables secure access to specific TCP/IP based applications and internal resources through the Internet by providing a framework for strong data encryption, access control, mutual authentication, and audit logging. The patented On-line Registration feature establishes user identity and activates user authentication credentials, allowing new users and applications to be provisioned and deployed in minutes with minimal administrative burden.
At the same time, SmartGate is easy to implement, manage and, most importantly, use. And SmartGate products are compatible with your IT environment to help you protect your technology investment. They are available on a broad range of clients, including Windows, UNIX, and Pocket PC, work with all major firewalls, support a wide range of third-party authentication systems and include a FIPS 140 validated soft token. The FIPS token provides digital identity and strong authentication for users, eliminating password support burdens and reducing help desk issues.
