| Wick Hill and Array Networks Launch SSL VPN Flex Plan in UK A true remote access business continuity plan, based around high performance, scalable SSL VPNs, is being launched in the UK by SSL VPN vendor Array Networks and its new value added distributor Wick Hill. The Array Business Continuity (ABC) Flex Plan allows workers to access business critical applications and resources on the corporate network anytime, anywhere, when circumstances prevent them getting into the office. This may be due to natural disasters such as avian flu, terror threats or other business interruptions such as transport disruption, bad weather, or seasonal events (e.g., student registration). These events require a robust, fully featured and highly scalable remote access solution to avoid interruptions that can result in work stoppage, high costs and loss of revenue for businesses. The Array Business Continuity Flex Plan has been specifically designed to address a wide range of potential business interruption events with no intervention required, i.e., no phone calls, IT interaction or advance license purchases are required. It is an insurance plan that provides instantaneous scalability of users up to system maximum capacities. Since Array's SPX SSL VPN systems scale far higher than the nearest competitor, companies have ample capacity to add users without requiring IT d epartments to scramble to add extra hardware or worse, to purchase additional hardware systems just to ensure needed capacity is available. The Array Business Continuity Flex Plan can be activated anytime for a modest fee and the customer only pays a usage fee if and when additional users access the system. Wick Hill has been appointed by Array Networks to grow UK sales of its product range which includes the ABC Flex Plan, the SPX Series of SSL VPN Access Gateways and the TMX Series of SSL SLB Application Accelerators. The SPX Series of SSL VPN are fast and scalable SSL VPN products, performing eight times faster and scaling 12 times higher than the nearest competitor. The TMX Series of SSL SLB Application Accelerators provide blazing-fast and secure access with functions such as server load balancing, SSL acceleration, compression, caching, and attack prevention all integrated in one box, so network managers can quickly handle essential housekeeping functions and move on to more productive work. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Networking News :: home page |
