Secure Mobile office.

AppGate Secure Mobile Office - Its security functions makes it possible for operators to deliver the highly demanded mobile services in a secure and cost-effective way. The Secure Mobile Office is built on the latest technology with a system renowned in the industry for its high security, stability and flexibility.

Secure Mobile Office sets up a secure VPN tunnel between the users mobile phone and the operator and between the operator and the customers gateway. This makes it possible for the user to get secure email access and to even reach everything on intranet web servers, in a secure way. The system has built-in support for roaming and the phone client will automatically reconnect to the system after a network failure with no need for the user to log in again. To make it easy for the users to be up and running, all settings in the phone are automatically installed via "over the air provisioning (OTP)" and the solution works on any smartphone. The solution demands only a small appliance box to be installed at the end customer site with minimal configuration work involved.

• The user signs the subscription.

• An SMS message is sent to the users phone, containing a link the user can click on to download the application needed for maintaining security and access. The received application is automatically installed and with a few button presses, the user is online.

• Personal user settings for e-mail and Intranet access are also automatically configured in the users phone.

Technial specifications

The AppGate Secure Mobile Office consists of three different parts: SERVERS placed at the operator, a SATELLITE installed at the customer site and a native code CLIENT installed on the users mobile phone. Each server can handle more than 20.000 concurrent users and servers can be clustered to support even larger numbers of users. The servers can be connected to LDAP and Radius servers for easy handling of customer related information such as user accounts. All user accounts are configured and controlled by the operator. Users with ordinary laptops can easily get access to information either using their web browser (SSL) or use a Java client, depending on requirements. The information is always encrypted with strong ciphers such as AES-128. The gateway can be placed on an internal network, behind firewalls, NAT gateways, proxies, etc., and it makes the solution very easy to deploy in all types of customer organisations
