Juniper launches 'Junos Pulse'

Juniper Networks disclosed the availability of Junos
Pulse, to further redefine the mobile experience by delivering integrated
connectivity, acceleration, and security, while enabling new service models
for service providers. Juniper also announced the availability of AppTrack
software, that enables application-level visibility and control for its SRX
series services gateways across the enterprise.

Junos Pulse is a dynamic, standards-based, integrated multi-service network
client, that allows the IT staff to enforce consistent endpoint security
policies across a wide variety of notebooks, netbooks, and smart phones. It
also reduces the number of software agents they support, while greatly
limiting the need for end-users to directly interact with network connectivity
and security software. From any location, end-users need to simply supply
their credentials and Junos Pulse will ensure simple and secure access to
corporate resources from any endpoint device. Building on the success of
Juniper's SA Series SSL VPN appliances, Unified Access Control (UAC), and WXC
series application acceleration platform, Junos Pulse combines all of these
capabilities and improves the time and resource investments associated with
global mobility deployments and overall economics involved in securing the
'new network'.

"To remain in step with the changing mobility needs of our clients, we have
to ensure that the products and services we offer, address a broad range of
mobile challenges," said Alex Cho, CTO, Nova Datacom. He further said, "Junos
Pulse provides our customers an efficient, secure and cost-effective solution
for today's organizations, who are struggling to manage the consistent
security and user experience across a wide variety of devices, users, and
locations."

"Ubiquitous data access has become a requirement for today's mobile
workforce. Plain and simple, by incorporating Junos Pulse endpoint security or
AppTrack Software for the SRX Series 'new network', organizations are ensuring
secure connectivity and increased network and application visibility enabling
a better end-user experience," said Karim Toubba, VP, Product Marketing,
Juniper Networks.
