OSLO, Norway - May 23rd, 2012- Birdstep Technology ASA
(www.birdstep.com), a leading provider of wireless
connectivity and security software, announced today the
launch of its SafeMove Clientless SSL VPN, offering easy,
secure and efficient remote access to the enterprise
network.
While Birdstep's full SafeMove Mobile VPN system is
designed to secure company-issued equipment and the
connections of these devices, the Clientless SSL VPN is
suited for occasional connections from home computers and
web kiosks, as well as remote access by external
consultants and contractors.
Birdstep introduces SafeMove
Clientless SSL VPN at Enterprise Mobility Exchange
2012, May 21 - 23 in Rotterdam, Netherlands.
"With more flexible working practices and the increase in
virtual consultants and contractors, business is
increasingly conducted outside the office and on employees'
own devices," said Anders Harrysson, CEO and president of
Birdstep. "SafeMove makes the mobile worker BYOD trend more
secure, offering a full remote access solution for all your
devices from laptops to smartphones to these occasional
connections."
"Our recently launched SafeMove Mobile Access and this
upcoming SafeMove SSL VPN complement Birdstep's basic
SafeMove Mobile VPN. With this suite of solutions we can
provide full remote access and SafeMove as a Service if
needed to unburden the company's own IT resources,"
Harrysson added.
The SafeMove clientless SSL VPN solution enables easy
access to corporate internal networks, file systems and
web-based applications from any standard web browser. The
system offers strong authentication and fine grained access
control, without requiring software installation or
administrator privileges on the client system.
SafeMove Clientless SSL VPN provides a full range of
benefits:
-
Well suited for occasional connections to the enterprise
network.
-
Easy to use through a standard web browser.
-
Does not require any client software installations.
-
User can sign on to the portal with his/her Windows user
name and password.

schemes, access is allowed only to the services the
