The consumerization of IT is under way. Workers want tablet access to business applications, often from personal devices. Learn why VPNs are not ideal for mobile connectivity and why remote desktop is a more secure, less expensive approach to tablet access that is easier to deploy, manage and use.
AG Series secure access gateways provide scalable and
controlled remote and mobile access to corporate networks,
enterprise applications and cloud services for any user,
anywhere on any device.
Remote connectivity is crucial for enterprise productivity and SSL has gained fast popularity as a remote access
tool. In fact, SSL VPNs as a technology have shown promise in eliminating many of the client side issues associated
with IPSec, and other forms of remote access. Furthermore, SSL VPNs offer a smooth migration to a more costeffective,
easier to deploy remote access solution than IPSec. SSL VPN’s combination of flexibility and functionality
makes it competitive with IPSec even when deployed for enterprise’s “power users.”
In today’s crowded SSL VPN market, it’s easy to become overwhelmed by the wide range of solutions available.
Obviously, there are many factors to consider when purchasing an SSL VPN product, and you want to make the
best choice possible. This SSL VPN Evaluation Guide serves as an important resource in identifying, describing, and
prioritizing the criteria you should consider when selecting an SSL VPN provider that best fits the needs of your
organization.
Selection Criteria
In coming up with a selection criteria, the functions offered by SSL VPNs have to be evaluated against two key
aspects: security and user experience. A truly successful deployment of a secure access solution cannot be achieved
without taking both aspects into consideration. Look for an SSL VPN that can also serve the organization’s longterm
needs, integrates seamlessly with the network architecture, and provides powerful management tools. The
optimal provider will exceed in these key areas:
n Performance and scalability
n Security
n Ease of use
n Company reputation
n Technology leadership
CMX100 centralized management appliances allow customers
to monitor and manage up to 100 Array Networks APV or AG

End-user computing is not a trend, it's a transformational shiftUni Systems S.M.S.A.
In the new end-user computing environment, people want to stay connected and have access to the best networks and services as a seamless extension of their traditional desktop.
End-user computing is no longer about managing laptops and desktops. Today, we need to support user access to services, applications, and data on any device and in any location.
This revolution promises greater flexibility, productivity enhancements, staff morale improvements, and cost savings.
Your business can benefit from Virtual Desktop Computing.
I Brought My Own Device. Now What? by Paul Andersen, Marketing Manager at Array Networks .
The consumerization of IT is underway. In its report Tablets Will Rule the Future Personal Computing Landscape, Forrester predicts sales of 375 million tablets in 2016 with over 750 million tablets in use.
In a recent survey of 250 senior IT & business decision makers by Cloud Industry Forum, 61% expressed concerns over data security in the cloud, despite the fact only 2% have ever experienced a cloud-related security breach. Talk of the cloud and cloud technology has been rife for a long time now, yet there
are still many businesses that subscribe to out-dated
myths, such as data security.
The last few years have seen a marked increase in the
popularity of the cloud but for many it’s another tech
innovation that everyone tells them they need but that they
don’t fully understand. There’s a distinct hype surrounding
discussions on the cloud, but for the most part, they come
across as semi-intelligible fog, full of jargon fi lled techspeak,
with a lack of clarity about the business advantages.
In this whitepaper, we’ll lift the haze around the cloud and take
a straight-forward approach to explore the benefits, making it easy to determine if the cloud is right for you. We’ll clearly state the benefits of using the cloud as well as give an overview of the perceived risks and remove some of the common misconceptions.
Three Keys to Building a Secure Mobile Infrastructure in Government EnvironmentsVMware
Companies today have distributed mobile workforces and employees who are connecting to the corporate network via a large number of devices. These employees are located all over the globe, and they need seamless access to their information.
This creates pressure on IT to figure out how to deliver the right business services and data to users, and to deliver these in a way that is efficient, secure and auditable for IT. Moreover, the experience must be productive for users no matter what device they are using to connect from.
Horizon Workspace 1.5 is uniquely positioned to deliver on these objectives.

Redefining ADCs for Software-as-a-Service Application Delivery that’s Scalabl... Array Networks
Whether software-as-a-service (SaaS) providers rely on their network, application or DevOps group – or some combination thereof – to deploy and manage applications and application infrastructure, the goal is the same: to ensure that each new release functions properly over the Internet to a large and growing end-user community. Due to the demands of Web-scale operations and the need to maintain competitive advantage through rapid release cycles, it is essential that SaaS providers select and deploy networking solutions that are scalable, adaptable, affordable and simple. This is especially true for application delivery solutions which play a critical role in ensuring high availability, application performance and security for Web and cloud-based applications and services.
This paper contrasts app delivery in the context of traditional enterprise applications with app delivery for SaaS applications in order to identify and define ADC characteristics and Array advantages that match the unique requirements of cloud-based application service providers.

As more organizations turn to virtual private networks (VPNs) based on Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
technology to meet their remote access needs, it’s becoming clear that SSL VPN solutions based on
a general purpose computing platform are not equipped to meet the demanding requirements of
medium to large enterprises and service providers.
Such customers have stringent demands for security, user experience, response time, throughput,
and scalability. At the same time, they want to become more efficient by consolidating a plethora of
access control lists (ACLs)—from firewalls, LAN switches, wireless LAN devices and application security
proxies—onto a single VPN system.
Only a purpose-built SSL VPN platform can satisfy these demands.
This paper will discuss the attributes of such a purpose-built SSL VPN platform—the Array Networks
SPX— and how it cost-effectively delivers real-world benefits to enterprises and service providers
including:
• Improved security, flexibility and control
• Improved performance, productivity and user experience
• Reduced total cost of ownership (TCO)

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

3. Tablet Access to Business Applications
Introduction
Tablet adoption is on the rise. Over 35 million iPads are expected to sell in 2011, with sales of over 55 million
projected for 2012. Android-based tablets, which are expected to sell 20 million units in 2011, will grow even
faster with sales of over 45 million units in 2012. A proven winner in the consumer market, tablets are now
making significant inroads in the enterprise due to their portability and their potential to provide instant access to
applications and information in a broad range of business situations.
For instance, it is not practical for a doctor on the move between exam rooms, rounds and clinics to
carry a heavy laptop that is constantly starting up, connecting, sleeping or shutting down. In contrast,
a tablet is highly portable and provides an always-on experience with information and applications
immediately available at the doctor’s finger tips. This ability to enhance worker productivity and
improve quality of work gives tablets the potential for tremendous growth in the enterprise.
Tablet Deployment Challenges
Initially designed as consumer devices, tablets face significant challenges to becoming full-fledged solutions
for business productivity. Chief among them are security, application availability, device management, cost and
time.
Security
First and foremost is security. Consider the lengths and costs necessary to ensure the security of VPN access:
laptops, client software, anti-virus, anti-spyware, hard-disk encryption, two-factor authentication and the list goes
on. The thought of a similar scenario driven by the influx of tablets in the workplace is daunting. What’s more,
tablet access is complicated by Bring Your Own Device (BYOD), the desire of many workers to use their personal
device. Personal devices and content can create a lot of problems; for example, running standard VPN clients on
tablets can change device behavior – a scenario that employees will not accept and which will create additional
burden for IT. Further, personal devices are more likely to be lost or stolen, and create a situation where music,
pictures and personal content reside on the same device as confidential enterprise data. As IT attempts to protect
corporate data without disturbing personal data, significant risk can result if security is traded to achieve a more
user-friendly experience. Unfortunately, the organizations that stand to gain the most from the benefits of tablet
access, such as financial services and healthcare, are the same organizations that stand to lose the most in the
event of data leakage.
Application Availability
Tablets access the Internet, run consumer apps and without too much trouble can be configured to provide
access to corporate email systems. Out of the box, this is about the extent of a tablet’s capabilities for conducting
business. Tablets don’t run Windows, or any of the business applications developed for Windows. This is to say,
there is a large gap between what employees are accustomed to using and what is available on tablets. There are
certain native apps that can be purchased, but since tablets are often private devices, it doesn’t make sense to
re-purchase apps that are already available on employee desktops. Additionally, because tablets are consumer
devices, employees will commonly switch from one platform to another, increasing the number of application
environments that must be purchased, deployed and managed.

Approaches to Tablet Access
To determine the best approach or mix of approaches for any organization, it is necessary to evaluate the pros and
cons of all solutions and compare them against the needs of the particular business. Three common approaches
for providing tablet access to corporate resources and applications are the use of VPN and native applications,
server-based computing and managed services.
VPN Native Apps
A common approach to tablet access is to leverage existing VPN infrastructure and provide the workforce with
instructions for installing the VPN client on their mobile device. The benefit here is that it is a fast, down and dirty
way to enable tablets in the enterprise, at the extra cost of new licenses and additional appliances. However, these
VPN clients are intrusive apps, and installing them on private devices can cause potential instabilities and support
problems that are not acceptable.
Security is another drawback of this approach. In its most basic implementation, the only thing that is secured is
the connection between the tablet and the corporate network. Like a laptop, a tablet is able to download, store,
copy, paste and send all the data it wants; unlike a laptop, it is not managed and is far more likely to get lost or
stolen. This opens the door to other challenges such as the cost and complexity of purchasing corporate owned
and managed tablets, or investing heavily in mobile device management software, or both.
The other challenge of simple VPN access is application availability. Tablets do not run Windows, and tablets do not
support most enterprise applications. This creates a significant gap between the use of tablets as consumer devices
and the use of tablets for business. To close this gap, organizations are turning to developing or purchasing native
applications, in essence creating a duplicate application environment specifically for tablet access for a select
number of core applications.
A benefit of native apps is that they can be developed from the ground up for usability on a tablet platform. This
is an important consideration, as applications will differ as to how well they behave in the tablet environment.
There are, however, downsides and limitations to developing native apps. For one, it is time consuming and
expensive to develop and support multiple application environments. Considering the number of applications
in use in the typical enterprise, developing or purchasing native apps may not make sense beyond a core set of
business-critical applications. Secondly, developing or purchasing native apps locks enterprises into specific tablet
platforms, eliminating the ability to support a flexible BYOD strategy.
In the end, an approach based on VPNs and native apps can deliver a highly-productive user experience for select
applications, but at significant expense due to security, mobile device management and the need to develop,
purchase and support secondary application environments. Because data is allowed to reside on the tablets, data
leakage can never be fully prevented; moreover, native apps are not aligned with a flexible BYOD strategy as they
require organizations to develop to specific platforms.
Server-Based Computing
Server-based computing runs applications and desktops in the data center and delivers them to client devices on
demand. Just as these virtual applications and virtual desktops can be delivered to PCs either locally or remotely,
today, providers of server-based computing offer client applications that make it possible to deliver applications
to tablets and smart phones.

DesktopDirect – A New Approach to Tablets for Business
DesktopDirect is an innovative, secure remote access solution. Unlike VPNs, DesktopDirect enables employees to
get to their office computers from any remote location — whether they be at their home office, at a customer or
partner site, at a public Internet kiosk, or even from their iPhones and iPads. DesktopDirect uniquely leverages
proven and scalable technologies to deliver the industry’s most secure enterprise-class solution for remote
desktop access and control.
In a tablet access environment, the DesktopDirect appliance is installed in the corporate network and integrates
with Active Directory or similar to establish user credentials for secure access. Either physical or virtual desktops
may be registered for users, a process that can be accomplished by the administrator manually or via a database,
or by end-users using Array Registration Technology (ART). For tablet access, users download a free application
from an App Store, App Marketplace or similar to their corporate or personal tablet. From there, users launch the
DesktopDirect application, log in using their single sign-on credentials, and make a selection from their list of
registered desktops.

Unlike managed services, DesktopDirect is under full enterprise control and does not open the corporate network
to third party networks. DesktopDirect also ensures that mobile devices never become a part of the corporate
network; because end-users merely use their mobile device to control their office desktop, data never leaves the
corporate network and cannot be left behind on tablets. Connectivity from the DesktopDirect appliance to end-
user devices is encrypted using SSL and controls for copy, paste, print and screen capture eliminate any remaining
chance of data leakage.

Summary
Selecting the right approach to providing tablet access may not be an either or proposition, but might, in fact,
include a mix of the approaches outlined in this document. For instance, a particular application may not translate
well from a PC environment to a tablet environment, and the decision is made that a native application must be
developed. Or an application is so essential to the core business that getting the best possible user experience
is worth the expense of developing a native app. Likewise, organizations with a large investment in server-based
computing will still want to make these resources available to tablet users.

DesktopDirect is equally at home providing a full tablet access solution or working in conjunction with alternate
approaches to tablet access. If an enterprise has hundreds of applications, native apps may be developed for five
to ten of them, with DesktopDirect providing a catch all to provide secure tablet access to the remainder of the
organization’s applications. Or the rapid nature of deploying DesktopDirect can be leveraged to provide tablet
access to critical applications while a native app is under development. Because DesktopDirect supports access to
both physical and virtual desktops, organizations can quickly and cost-effectively deploy a tablet access solution
that incorporates their investment in server-based computing.
Ultimately, each organization has to bear in mind their requirements for data leakage prevention, application
availability, time and expense and usability and select the approach or combination of approaches that meet their
business needs and provide the strongest ROI for their environment.
