SonicWALL® Clean VPN.
SonicWALL delivers the critical dual protection of SSL VPN and high-performance Unified Threat Management (UTM) necessary to secure both VPN access and traffic. This level of secure remote access helps organizations and their employees to stay productive and healthy during periods of business disruption by:
Protecting the integrity of your VPN access by establishing trust for your remote users and their endpoint devices, using enforced authentication, data encryption, and granular access policy.
Securing the integrity of your VPN traffic by establishing trust for this traffic, by cleaning and authorizing all inbound traffic for malware, and checking all outbound VPN traffic in real time.
This dual protection of SonicWALL Clean VPN provides a multi-layered approach that enables you to decrypt and decontaminate all authorized SSL VPN traffic before it enters your network environment.
Remote access = a strategic initiative.
To remain competitive today and into the future, organizations must be able to conduct business from anywhere, anytime—especially during periods of crisis like the spread of Swine Flu. Secure remote access over SonicWALL Clean VPN can safely extend a business network and deliver a multitude of benefits, all without jeopardizing an organization's integrity.

Workforce continuity.
With the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Gartner, Inc. anticipating up to 40% absentee rates, expect that many of your employees may stay home, either sick themselves or attending to a sick family member. Enforced travel restrictions may require your business to replace business travel and large gatherings with Web meetings, teleconferencing and virtual private networks (VPN). Disruptions to normal business operations often result in missed opportunities, lost revenue, and a damaged reputation. And swine flu is by no means the only threat. While hurricanes, earthquakes and tsunamis make the headlines, disruptions and disasters can be also be triggered by something as simple as a winter storm, power outage, hardware failure or any other event that keeps your workers from getting to the office or accessing vital business resources. Secure remote access is now a strategic imperative, enabling business to be safely conducted without being tied a particular physical office location.

Work green.
Secure remote access can help reduce carbon footprints and promote "working green" initiatives. Not only does safe remote access reduce the use of carbon-emitting vehicles like cars, trains and airplanes, but recent research by Sun reports its telecommuters use roughly half as much energy at home as they do in the office. (10 Trends and Technologies Driving Secure Telecommuting , Fact Point, 2008) According to the American Consumer Institute, the number of telecommuters could increase from 10% to 20% of the U.S. workforce over the next 10 years and reduce carbon emissions in the U.S. by 45 million tons annually. (Joseph Fuhr Jr. and Stephen Pociask, American Consumer Institute, 2007)

Increase productivity.
Secure remote access broadens market opportunities and collaborative partnerships around the globe. Importantly, it also enables employees, contractors and outsourcers to be more productive through teleworking. According to "Economics of Teleworking" by Noel Hodson, the average worker spends the equivalent of 30 working days per year commuting, traveling, or engaging in office chit-chat. Converting some of this down time into productive time is a clear win for employers. At IBM, teleworking boosted employee productivity by about 20 percent. (Lisa Phifer. Business Communications Review. Hinsdale: Oct 2003. Vol. 33, Iss. 10; pg. 28)

Collaborate with Web 2.0.
Clean VPN empowers businesses of all sizes to capitalize on Web 2.0 technology to more cost-effectively increase productivity wherever businesses is conducted: from home, on the road, or at a customer site. For example, remote collaboration using Web 2.0 applications such as Web conferencing, wikis and VoIP, can reduce travel and communications expenses, reduce supply chain bottlenecks, enhance productivity and speed time-to-market. By uniquely integrating Comprehensive Anti-Spam Service with Gateway Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware, Intrusion Prevention, Application Intelligence, Enforced Client Anti-Virus, and Content Filtering Services with SSL VPN, SonicWALL Clean VPN delivers comprehensive, integrated protection against emerging Denial of Service (DoS) threats, such a Syn Flood, Ping of Death, LAND (IP) and VoIP spoofing attacks that can undermine collaborative Web 2.0 applications.
Remote access = risk of exposure.
Modern business practices have extended users, endpoints, traffic and resources beyond the limits of the traditional network perimeter, shattering preconceived notions on the limits of productivity. But extending access to unmanaged environments also exposes your organization to security vulnerabilities in two crucial areas: your VPN access and your VPN traffic.
Integrity of your VPN access.
Your VPN is exposed to network hacks. And, handled improperly, a remote access connection can be compromised with user identities stolen, hacked, sniffed or inappropriately shared.

Integrity of your VPN access.
Your VPN is exposed to network hacks. And, handled improperly, a remote access connection can be compromised with user identities stolen, hacked, sniffed or inappropriately shared. Offering too much access opens your network to threats from non-employees, while too little access can hamper productivity with business partners. With ever-more sophisticated methods of gaining entry, savvy and financially-motivated criminal hackers have increased the risk of compromised data, systems downtime, reduced productivity, bandwidth consumption, and monetary theft.
Integrity of your VPN traffic.
Your VPN is also exposed to both inbound malware attacks and outbound data leaks that can potentially exploit the return VPN connection.

Integrity of your VPN traffic.
Your VPN is also exposed to both inbound malware attacks and outbound data leaks that can potentially exploit the return VPN connection. Remote employees, partners, and contractors increasingly work on personal laptops, mobile devices, home PCs or public Internet kiosks at airports or hotels, using multiple operating systems and browsers that are outside the direct enforcement of IT policy. Remote users may not be aware of how to take proper security measures—such as critical security patches and anti-virus signature updates—on their own. Outbound data exposes your business to security risks for leaking confidential business data, such as financial records, customer databases, and intellectual property. Additionally, the unauthorized, inadvertent, or malicious transmittal of sensitive private information such as credit card, stock trading, or medical records can expose your organization to liability. Compliance legislation such as PCI, HIPAA and GLBA can mandate that only authorized users can gain access to authorized data, yet remote users may be less authorized on a personal device than when they are on the network LAN.
By securing the integrity of both your VPN access and VPN traffic, the SonicWALL Clean VPN offers necessary defense-in-depth protection that allows you to control access based on how you establish trust for the user, for the device and for the traffic itself—all of which is necessary for a truly secure remote access.
