 Analyst Corner - SSL VPN: IPSec Killers or Overkill? - Analyst Corner - CIO
SSL VPNs have been available for several years, but the market for SSL VPN appliances has been set on fire in the last 18 months by a new generation of low-cost purpose-built appliances, lead by competitors such as Neoteris, Nortel, and Aventail.
SSL VPNs are emerging as a viable alternative to full blown VPNs, and are particularly suited to mobile workers and extranet applications where secure, controlled access to a specific set of applications is required.
SSL VPNs greatly reduce the administrative burden of remote access, because unlike IPsec VPNs, only specific applications are permitted across the SSL VPN, reducing the potential for unauthorized network intrusions.
