Junos Pulse Secure Access Service Administration Guide
Abstract
The Juniper Networks Secure Access Service enable you to give employees, partners,
and customers secure and controlled access to your corporate data and applications
including file servers, Web servers, native messaging and e-mail clients, hosted servers,
and more from outside your trusted network using just a Web browser.
Secure Access Service provide robust security by intermediating the data that flows
between external users and your company’s internal resources. Users gain authenticated
access to authorized resources through an extranet session hosted by the appliance.
During intermediation, Secure Access Service receives secure requests from the external,
authenticated users and then makes requests to the internal resources on behalf of those
users. By intermediating content in this way, Secure Access Service eliminates the need
to deploy extranet toolkits in a traditional DMZ or provision a remote access VPN for
employees.
To access the intuitive Secure Access Service home page, your employees, partners, and
customers need only a Web browser that supports SSL and an Internet connection. This
page provides the window from which your users can securely browse Web or file servers,
use HTML-enabled enterprise applications, start the client/server application proxy,
begin a Windows, Citrix, or Telnet/SSH terminal session, access corporate e-mail servers,
start a secured layer 3 tunnel, or schedule or attend a secure online meeting.
