The Juniper Networks NetScreen-Hardware Security Client, combined with NetScreen-Security Manager, is Juniper's most cost effective security solution for the fixed telecommuter and small remote office. It can easily be deployed and managed in large deployments with Juniper Network's Rapid Deployment capabilities, eliminating expensive staging steps. Using the same operating system as all NetScreen firewall and VPN solutions, the NetScreen-Hardware Security Client is able to provide the same level of protection as is found at the central sites. In addition, the NetScreen-Hardware Security Client has an embedded antivirus feature, which provides an additional layer of application-level protection to help eliminate virus threats from the network. As a device designed for the telecommuter/remote office environment, the NetScreen-Hardware Security Client requires the use of Juniper Networks NetScreen-Security Manager to manage the device.
