The system provides the security of a private network with the ease and flexibility of the Internet

The system provides the security of a private network with the ease and flexibility of the Internet allowing enterprises to rapidly realise the benefits of a secure extranet.

Mycroft’s heritage is providing a streamlined, unified approach; combing access from multiple WAN’s such as DII(F), GSI and the Internet that will result in excellent ROI as well as greatly improved security.

Securing Complex Collaborative Environments

The Mycroft Gateway provides an authenticated end to end encrypted connection using a standard web browser and ensures that users are restricted to authorized areas and can never make a direct connection to the application layer. This prohibits network layer transmission of malicious code, malware, Trojans, worms or viruses by users connecting on potentially compromised computers.

Users are restricted to authorized areas and can never make a direct connection to the application layer.

All of an organization’s trading partners (including clients, suppliers and trading partners) can securely access local resources such as network file servers, email, and Web, UNIX, Client/Server and legacy applications though any standard Web browser. No specialized client hardware or software is required, keeping costs associated with rollout, training and support to a minimum.
