Appgate network security launches the world largest secure access solution in one single server
AppGate launches a 10,000 user solution in one single server based on the T2000 from SUN. The new solution that will be an appliance from Appgate called A10 and is available for customers today.
With this new solution, Appgate has again shown its leadership in access security and application/device security. By making it possible to have as many as 10,000 users in one single box it is now even easier to build large scale implementations. For even bigger installations or in situations where redundancy is needed, it is possible to cluster several A10 servers together. The reason why this solution is developed is that in a world where network perimeters are becoming harder to define, building a secure wall around the corporate network is no longer a solution. Mobile users and 3G connectivity makes it hard to define what is inside and what is outside of a company’s network. Solving all access problems with today’s security products often results in a complex environment comprising many different products each addressing one issue. This is a driving force why solutions need to be able to support many users at the same time.
“From now on security products have to behave differently. With Appgate’s integration of many security features into a single system and with our ‘single point of power’ concept, it is now possible to deploy a user-friendly system and increase security at the same time. AppGate protects application servers, end point devices and provisions secure access without the need to rebuild the network infrastructure every time the organization changes” says Tomas Olovsson, CTO of AppGate
