Applied Identity
www.appliedidentity.com

Identisphere
Applied Identity's Identisphere solution is a management platform consisting of policy management software, identity management middleware, and appliances. Identisphere integrates with existing identity management systems to define a common network authorization policy across all topologies and domains of an enterprise network. Identisphere defines network authorization policy in terms of user identity, which controls what resources user on the network can see and use. Identisphere will unify authorization policy management, by integrating with existing identity management infrastructure to create a single network authorization policy per user, even if user identities are spread across multiple enterprise identity domains.

Applied Identity's Identisphere Manager is shipped free with other Applied Identity products; Identiforce Appliance starts at $12,000, and Identisphere Global Identity Service (IGIS) Appliance starts at $50,000.

Array Networks
www.arraynetworks.net

Array Site2Site VPN
Array Networks' new Site2Site VPN capability provides an SSL-based, site-to-site offering, which previously was the exclusive domain of IPsec. Resource Publishing allows applications, servers, or subnets to be accessed only by selected users or groups of users. Resource Publishing and the built-in access policies enable easy connection of untrusted third-party networks (for partners, customers, suppliers, etc.) and integration of complex networks, such as those seen in an M&A scenario. Resource Publishing hides a peer's internal network topology, thereby, avoiding IP address conflict issues, which are seen in the traditional approach when merging two networks together. Site2Site VPN is fully integrated with Array's SSL VPN remote access solutions.

Array Site2Site VPN Base MSR price is $2,995.
