Our secure managed VPN service includes:

• Network design and provisioning

• Monitoring and maintenance
• Complete management of all remote-access users - from setup to first connect to on-the-road issues

VPNs (Virtual Private Networks) allow mobile and remote workers to enjoy the ubiquity and low cost of Internet communications while maintaining the level of security offered by expensive private networks. VPNs encrypt network traffic and authenticate users to protect against eavesdropping, sniffing, man-in-the-middle attacks, insertion attacks and other security threats.

DFS has integrated both IPSec and SSL-based technology infrastructure, enabling employees to connect to the corporate network anytime, anywhere, using VPN client software or “clientless” via a Web browser – without compromising the security of the network.

Security and Control

DFS Managed VPN services let organizations choose and combine the two most popular forms of Virtual Private Networks:

• IPSec VPNs that provide highly secure IPSec tunnels for communications with mobile employees and with business partners and other trusted outsiders.
• SSL VPNs that leverage the SSL encryption capabilities of Web browser to provide a “clientless” VPN solution.

With advanced levels of encryption, authentication and extensive policy controls, DFS Managed VPN's ensure your network is protected even when users are accessing it from untrusted or unmanaged devices. This technology has the inherent capability to recognize a trusted environment and can restrict the use of certain applications.

Reliable

DFS Managed VPN Services are configurable for high-availability using redundant hardware (IPSec) or clustered systems (SSL).

Fast Clientless Deployment

The Managed SSL VPN Service is highly scalable to meet the needs of enterprises of any size. This managed service uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology, the security protocol found in all standard Web browsers. Many Web-enabled applications can communicate securely without any specialized software on the remote system, which reduces software deployment, desktop support and ongoing maintenance costs.

For environments that require the layer-3 access feature of DFS Managed SSL VPN, the client software (Network Connect) can be deployed dynamically during the SSL session, or through pre-installation of the software.

Flexibility and Low Costs

Flexible policy settings allow administrators to rapidly change user group definitions and access controls.

DFS Managed VPN services are transport-independent and can be extended to devices and applications using any form of Internet access, including Wi-Fi, broadband, dial-up, and cellular.
