About the ProSafe SSL VPN Concentrator 25
The ProSafe SSL VPN Concentrator 25 is a hardware-based SSL VPN solution designed
specifically to provide remote access for mobile users to their corporate resources without

(SSL) protocol, commonly used for e-commerce transactions, the SSL VPN Concentrator can
authenticate itself to an SSL-enabled client, such as a standard web browser. Once the
authentication and negotiation of encryption information is completed, the server and client can
establish an encrypted connection. With support for 25 concurrent sessions, users can easily access
the remote network for a customizable, secure, user portal experience from virtually any available
platform.
