How Firewalls and Secure Virtual Private Network Hardware Can be Combined for Robust Corporate Security
Overview Increasing use of remote access, along with the demand for faster and lower-cost connectivity, has contributed to Corporate America's interest in public data networks, such as the Internet, for day-to-day data communications. The remote access market is taking off rapidly. Many corporate network managers remain concerned about the reliability and security of the Internet. These concerns are valid. Corporations want reliable bandwidth public data networks, and historically leased-lines have been the standard solution. This is starting to change as the carriers and Internet Service Providers (ISPs) move aggressively to address Internet reliability issues. Some providers are so confident that they can deliver reliable Internet connectivity, they are guaranteeing throughput with a money back guarantee. One ISP is offering a service-level satisfaction of 99.5% backbone-access availability with delays of less than 70 microseconds in the continental U.S. Carriers and ISPs are promoting virtual private networking services as augmentations to leased lines and frame relay or even as the turnkey solution for interconnecting corporate local-area networks (LANs).
