Industry standards and government regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley, Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS), Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) and Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) require organisations to constantly strengthen the protection of mission-critical information such as credit card records, patient data or customer information. With billions of dollars of annual losses attributed to security breaches, corporations are under increasing pressure from auditors and shareholders to eliminate non-secure legacy systems.
Connectivity Secure Server offers a complete replacement for Telnet and FTP servers, providing organisations with the same flexibility and convenience as these protocols, but in a much more secure environment. Strong authentication methods, FIPS 140-2 validated encryption and robust content integrity allow network administrators to provide secure remote access and secure file transfer, as well as network traffic encryption.
Built on a highly efficient architecture, Connectivity Secure Server supports a high number of simultaneous user sessions while minimising memory and processor footprint, allowing organisations to eliminate unnecessary hardware and energy costs required by their previous solutions. Coupled with Connectivity SecureTerm , the industry's first desktop- and Web-based Secure Shell client, Connectivity Secure Server offers a cost-effective and high-performance point to point security solution.
