The dependency on mobile workers has increased and so has the need to provide secure 
remote access to network resources such as e-mail, files, intranets and applications. 
SonicWALL® introduces a solution to meet the needs of companies with remote workers. 
SonicWALL SSL-VPN security solutions, for networks of any size, are simple to deploy and 
even easier to use. They provide organizations with secure remote network and application 
access for mobile employees at a fraction of the price of most other SSL-VPN solutions. And, 
unlike solutions that charge a per-tunnel licensing fee, SonicWALL SSL-VPN solutions have no 
restrictions on the number of concurrent user tunnels, allowing organizations to scale their 
remote access connectivity as they grow.

Remote access has never been so simple. Mobile employees only require a standard Web 
browser to log into a Web portal which provides access to e-mail, files, applications and 
internal Web sites. For even more powerful capabilities such as seamless, secure access to 
any resource on the corporate network including servers and complex or home-grown 
applications, the appliances transparently push a downloadable thin client (NetExtender) 
to the user’s desktop or laptop.

firewall enables organizations to leverage the existing 

network infrastructure without the need to purchase 

additional hardware.

Clientless connectivity removes the need for 

a pre-installed or “fat” VPN client, thus freeing 

administrators from the tedious and costly task 

of installing and updating a client on users’ PCs.

Unrestricted concurrent user tunnels, unlike 

per-tunnel licensing, significantly reduces the costs 

associated with deploying a scalable secure remote 

access solution. 

NetExtender technology provides enhanced 

capabilities such as access to additional resources, 

services and applications on the corporate network.

Granular policy configuration controls enable 

network administrators to create policies that “lock 

down” a user to specific applications/resources and 

prevent unauthorized access to them.

A personalized portal, provided through a 

customizable Web interface, displays only those 

resources that are available to the user based on 

company policy.

Enhanced layered security is enabled when 

deployed alongside a SonicWALL network security 

appliance which utilizes powerful deep packet 

inspection technology to scan traffic for malicious 

threats such as viruses, worms, Trojans and spyware.

Tokenless two-factor authentication* provides 

enhanced protection against key loggers by combining 

a unique one-time password, generated by the SSL-VPN 

appliance and sent to a remote user’s mobile device or 

e-mail address, with the user’s network user name and 

password.

Context-sensitive help is provided throughout 

the Web-based administrative interface and end-

user portal, increasing management flexibility and 

ease-of-use.
