February 27, 2020

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Pulse SDP provides direct device-to-application trusted connectivity for Adecco, providing successful user, device, and security state verification, including geolocation and behavior-based anomaly detection. The dual-mode VPN and SDP architecture provides single-pane-of-glass secure access management with unified policy administration, simplified device coverage, and granular access. Pulse SDP increases the security for our employees who are typically working in a remote environment.

Pros

Simple to deploy
Provides flexibility
Supports dynamic access management

Cons

Challenging log-on for users
Fast connectivity needed
Slow log-in

Likelihood to Recommend

Pulse SDP is well suited in an environment where the majority of employees are working remotely or have extensive business travel. In today's environment where cybersecurity is of the utmost importance for all organizations, Pulse SDP provides a solid level of security for those remote employees or those traveling.

Reliable VPN

Rating: 7 out of 10

January 25, 2020

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Remote access, across all lines of business. Migrating to a model where it’s also used to validate certain elements of third party risk as it relates to meeting specific tech standards for security.

Pros

Reliable links.
Efficient connection timeouts.

Cons

Noisy SIEM integration.
Major upgrades are tough to implement.

Likelihood to Recommend

If you can control the rollout of the client the Pulse Connect Secure is user-friendly. We often have a federation of endpoints that we do not control and those endpoints invariably cause pain during major upgrade cycles. It’s also not obvious that some of the default choices (like what type of VPN to use) actually degrades the service.

Juniper SSL Review

Rating: 9 out of 10

Incentivized

June 10, 2019

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

The product is being used for secure remote access by all the employees. We have more than one deployment of it, and we use it to connect to several internal environments. We also use it to publish some resources to external parties. With Juniper, you have two ways to connect (through the client or web portal) and we use them both.

Pros

Very stable, it's not one of those products that require restarting from time to time.
Policies are easy to build.
Can be deployed on many platforms, cloud/on-prem, physical/virtual appliances.

Cons

The central management tool is not mature.
The option to connect before logging in using Network Connect is EOL, and the alternative is not good enough currently (requires machine authentication).

Likelihood to Recommend

Well suited for any secure remote access needs. Full VPN or just specific resources (web, RDP, HTML5, etc.) are supported. All client types are also supported (Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android). Compliance checks can be implemented in order to verify the endpoint is complied with the company standard, e.g AV, OS version, processes, registry keys, etc
