All of these are to keep your business online for mission-critical or important Internet-based applications.

Single Box with Low Cost of Ownership
Billion’s BiGuard Dual-WAN SSL VPN Security Appliance Series integrates SSL VPN, IPSec, firewall and router functions in one single box.

Aimed at a low total cost of ownership, the BiGuard SSL VPN box is affordable for SMEs. IT administrators no longer need to buy an extra device to manage remote Intranet access, nor install and maintain additional equipment for data security. The integrated router and firewall functions provide administrators with a perfect solution to manage all connections and file sharing of remote access. It is easier to simply integrate these functions into one BiGuard SSL VPN device instead of buying several independent networking devices.

Managing various groups of remote users for certain access applications and policies and maintaining the user accounts in a SME are a hassle for IT administrators. Group Account Setting featured in the BiGuard Dual-WAN SSL VPN Giga SME Appliance Series address administrators’ concerns. AD/LDAP Account Import makes it easy for IT administrators of enterprises to manage intranets by importing existing accounts from AD/LDAP servers into a BiGuard SSL VPN device. IT administrators configure the gateway to control the resources and applications available to different groups of users. Access policies, authorizations and authentication mechanisms can all be set up as well. After this setting, each user will have an easy-to-manage Personalized Web Portal, which displays the applications according to the user’s access settings.

Comprehensive Security
The security of remote access is even more concerned by IT administrators. The BiGuard Dual-WAN SSL VPN Giga SME Appliance Series supports rich advanced security features. The support of cache cleaner function makes sure that the user’s data will be cleaned up without record after user’s log out from a remote site. The End Point Security (EPS) function enables IT administrators to check the identity of a remote PC and its security policy settings when a user logs in from that device. Granular Access Control makes setting up different users allowed to access different applications possible. One-Time Password enforces the user to input different password every time when log in. Access Policy settings enable administrators to set up different users with different access rules. Strong firewall security provides access protection from hackers and other attacks. Access security with the BiGuard Dual-WAN SSL VPN Giga SME Appliance Series, no matter locally or from remote sites, is assured with these comprehensive security features.

Management Options for Growth
A total SSL VPN solution is made possible by offering optional support: SSL VPN Tunnel Upgrades, BiGuard’s Central Management System, and BiGuard One-Time Password (OTP). In case of a growing need for remote access, just upgrade the BiGuard SSL VPN gateway by adding more SSL VPN tunnels. The Central management System enables administrators in the head office or service providers to centrally manage all the BiGuard SSL devices, which enable remote configuration from a central site to save on maintenance efforts. In addition, the BiGuard OTP, a car-key sized token, is used to create a two-factor authentication by using a dynamically generated 6-digit PIN. Combined with your existing static password this results in a greatly reduced risk of unauthorized access to corporate network resources by intruders. The InstantChat Support and Firmware Updates services are also available for a certain duration from purchase date and continues optionally after that.
