Juniper Networks is the market leader in SSL-based remote access that is easy to deploy and easy to maintain. All Juniper Networks SA Series SSL VPN Appliances have met or exceeded the stringent security standards of independent Internet security auditing agencies. Juniper extends this leadership with a FIPS-certified hardware security module that is Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS)-compliant. The SA4500 FIPS SSL VPN appliance provides a hardened security gateway that uses the standards-based SSL protocol to provide remote access via a Web browser. There is no hardware or software clients to deploy, configure, or install; no changes required for internal servers; no Network Address Translation (NAT) or firewall traversal issues to manage; and virtually no ongoing maintenance. SSL itself is the most widely deployed security protocol in the world, securing billions of dollars in online banking and e-commerce transactions. The combination of these features adds up to a solution with unbeatable security, radically lower total cost of ownership (TCO) when compared to traditional VPNs or custom extranets, and a highly scalable implementation.
