Aventail® Smart Access™ options deliver
today’s most complete SSL VPN solution
Aventail SSL VPN appliances deliver everything
you need to provide secure access to any
application from any device. Our secure
application access platform is designed to provide
practical, easy-to-use anywhere access for the
user, and simple manageability, usability, and risk
mitigation for the administrator.

Aventail End Point Control
While the productivity benefit of
providing anywhere remote access is
clear, so is the risk: You now deliver
access from places and devices IT
cannot possibly control. Aventail® End
Point Control™ (EPC) addresses these
inherent security threats through
Device Interrogation—eliminating
risks before authentication, Policy
Zones—associating access with level
of trust, and data protection—
preventing users from leaving confidential
information behind in unmanaged environments
such as at a kiosk. Aventail handles each of
these areas with more depth, ease of use, and
security than other vendors do.
For example, Aventail provides data protection
features such as Aventail® Cache Control™ for
advanced cache cleaning and Aventail® Secure
Desktop™, which encrypts user’s local data and
destroys it at the end of the session. For
additional protection against the full range of
remote access threats, Aventail integrates with
our technology partners’ firewalls, intrusion
detection, virus protection, and other client-side
security offerings.
At a glance:
Clientless
Simple access to Web, client/server,
and legacy applications, as well as to
file shares from any device, anywhere,
over any network.
Secure
Granular access control, aliased URLs,
full authentication support, and
hardened appliances reduce risk. End
Point Control ensures security from
untrusted, semi-trusted, and trusted
environments.
Leading policy management
Aventail® Unified Policy™ delivers
sophisticated object-based policy
management that simplifies and
streamlines complex access rules into
one rule set that can be intuitively
managed from a single page.
Broad application and
platform support
Microsoft Outlook, Lotus Notes, SAP,
PeopleSoft, Oracle, and Citrix, to
name a few. Get browser-based access
from Windows, Pocket PC, Linux, or
Macintosh platforms.
High availability

active/active stateful failover on the
EX-1500 for a highly reliable SSL VPN
solution without the added cost of a
third-party load balancer.

Innovative technology grows to
meet your organization’s remote
access needs.
Immediate ROI
Unified Policy and no IPSec clients to
manage mean lower administration
costs. Transparent end-user experience
reduces support costs. Broader access
