SSL VPN technology and 2-factor authentication

Celestix WSA SSL VPN appliance provides secure access to corporate applications and data using a standard web browser. Delivering outstanding performance, scalability, ease-of-use, and security, WSA helps increase the productivity of those working from home or on the road. Businesses reap a competitive advantage because they can give key partners controlled access to applications and data. And IT departments can rest assured with a reliable solution that deploys quickly and fits immediately into their existing network infrastructure.

Allowing remote access to your network and authenticating using static, shared, reusable or easily guessed passwords exposes your business to significant risk. Recent trends in Spyware behaviour show an increase in the use of 'keyloggers' to steal static passwords. CRYPTOCard BlackShield ID is the defence mechanism that removes static passwords and provides a secure, affordable and manageable access control method for customers, partners and employees. BlackShield ID is interoperable with a wide range of 3rd party network access devices such as firewalls, VPN gateways, RAS devices and, of course, the Celestix WSA appliances.
