V-ONE Extends Secure
Citrix® Thin-Client Computing
Windows® CE Among
Platforms Protected by V-ONE's SmartGate® VPN Using Strong
Authentication, Exportable Encryption And Digital Certificate
Support
GERMANTOWN, MARYLAND, September 8
V-ONE Corporation (Nasdaq: VONE), a market leader in
client/server Virtual Private Networks (VPN), today announced
the extension of its SmartGate VPN product to support Citrix
Systems, Inc.’s (Nasdaq: CTXS) MetaFrame™ and WINFRAM®
server-based computing software. Citrix is recognized as a
market leader in server-based computing software (over 15
million clients and 350,000 servers deployed) which gives
organizations the flexibility and independence to rapidly
access the latest enterprise applications. SmartGate offers
the industry’s only VPN solution for Windows CE, a platform
supported by Citrix MetaFrame and Independent Computing
Architecture (ICA). This complements the security features in
Citrix, giving users a higher level of data security available
for sensitive business applications even if the device is
connected through wireless (or wireline) media via Windows CE.
Using SmartGate, Citrix users identify
themselves to the network through both mutual and two-factor
authentication. Entry of a single access code by the user is
all that is required to turn conventional Citrix application
access into SmartGate VPN-secured application access. The
fine-grained access control of SmartGate tightly manages which
applications each user can utilize via Citrix MetaFrame or
WINFRAM, while the entire session is protected by "export
anywhere" Triple DES (Digital Encryption Standard) encryption.
V-ONE’s patented On-Line Registration offers the industry’s
fastest and easiest client deployment in addition to
SmartGate’s support for digital certificates such as Entrust®
PKI software from Entrust Technologies (Nasdaq: ENTU.)
"V-ONE adds industry-leading VPN
security to the thin-client community with our support for
Citrix MetaFrame and WINFRAM," said David D. Dawson, chairman
and CEO of V-ONE Corporation. "SmartGate VPN’s distinctive
capabilities such as support for digital certificates give
Citrix users very real security advantages not otherwise
available. Support for Citrix further illustrates SmartGate’s
versatility and positions us well regarding the
rapidly-expanding popularity of Windows CE and the resurgence
of server-based computing."
"Citrix customers are looking for VPN
solutions that are compatible with Citrix MetaFrame and
WINFRAM server-based computing software," said Barry Davis,
vice president of corporate alliances for Citrix. "V-ONE’s
SmartGate solution complements the security features in Citrix
MetaFrame and WINFRAM and offers a compelling secure business
solution, particularly for Windows CE environments."
"As the leading consulting integrator
for both Citrix and V-ONE, we know firsthand the outstanding
synergy these two unique products will offer our enterprise
customers," said Peter Ghostine, President & CTO of Emergent
Technologies. "This synergy can prove to be more strategic for
our online server-based application outsourcing service which
will be rolled out later this year."
V-ONE’s SmartGate VPN runs on a variety
of platforms, including Windows® NT and Windows CE from
Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT), HP-UX from Hewlett-Packard (NYSE:
HWP), Solaris and Trusted Solaris from Sun Microsystems (Nasdaq:
SUNW) BSD UNIX and Linux. SmartGate features an open
architecture that perfectly complements any network firewall,
including products from BorderWare, Check Point Software
Technologies (Nasdaq: CHKPF), AXENT Technologies (Nasdaq: AXNT),
Network Associates (Nasdaq: NETA), IBM (NYSE: IBM) and Cisco (Nasdaq:
CSCO).
V-ONE also produces Instant Extranet
Server™ (IXS), which enables organizations of virtually any
size to immediately benefit from secure business communication
over the Internet. IXS is based on a hardened version of Linux
v6.0 from Red Hat (Nasdaq: RHAT) and automatically installs
with seamlessly integrated VPN security from V-ONE, providing
software for public and private Web servers, a secure e-mail
server and public and private FTP servers, in less than 30
minutes.
