AEP SmartGate is an identity-based application layer security gateway designed for large-scale, distributed, information-sharing environments. SmartGate, a FIPS 140-2 certified solution, enables organizations to securely exchange information with employees, customers and business partners over any IP-based infrastructure. Advanced features enable federated identity, strong authentication and control of access privileges across trusted organizations.
| • Delivers a framework for data encryption, access
control, strong user authentication, and audit logging |
| • Fine-grained access controls secure access to specific TCP/IP based applications and internal resources, SSL encryption |
| • All traffic routed to a single port proxy that
hides network topology and prevents direct connection to
target resources |
| • Software architecture allows separation of proxy
server, identity and encryption modules for maximum flexibility
and performance |
| • Scalability to more than 100,000 users, proven
in real-world implementations |
| • Integrated 2-Factor FIPS 140-2 -compliant software token |
| • Geographical separation and redundancy for high
availability and continuity of operations |
| • Works over any IP networking infrastructure – terrestrial,
wireless, Internet, IPSec VPN, Frame Relay and satellite |
| • PKI-enable TCP/IP applications without modification |
| • Patented on-line registration expedites user identity
and activates credentials |
| • Built on patented application-layer SSL VPN technology |
• Integrates easily within enterprise-wide security
framework
Government Grade Security |
| • FIPS 140-2-validated solution: All cryptographic elements of the server software (not just subcomponents) are FIPS 140-2 validated |
| • Integrated FIPS 140 validated software token for
strong, 2-factor user authentication |
| • End-to-end 256-bit AES encryption using dynamic
session keys |
