GeNUCrypt
Large VPN with only a few Tunnels
GeNUCrypt allows you to connect any number of local networks using a VPN – all without the need to establish a complex maze of VPN tunnels. The intelligent application of IPsec functions permits many individual connections between networks via a greatly reduced number of VPN tunnels. Thus, several individual connections, strictly separated from one another, can pass through each tunnel. This minimizes expense in terms of configuration, maintenance, and computer capacities, while at the same time eliminating a large number of error sources.
Straightforward: GeNUCrypt as a Bridge
You do not need to change your network structure to set up VPN. GeNUCrypt can be simply inserted in an existing network as a bridge. From this point on, it encrypts all communication with the other networks involved. Even a large-scale VPN infrastructure can be easily managed, as each participant’s connection is controlled by a central management server. That means you can install and operate a powerful VPN with very little outlay to securely exchange data between your distributed networks, and flexibly extend the system as your requirements change.
VPN Communication with GeNUCrypt
Bandwidth Management for Sensitive VoIP Communication
The GeNUCrypt VPN implementation is also ideally suited for Voice over IP (VoIP). This means your conversations are protected from unauthorized listeners, and adequate bandwidth always is guaranteed for the sensitive telephony protocol. The reason is that our VPN appliance features a sophisticated bandwidth management system. This lets you specify preferred protocols for data transfer using particularly demanding applications such as VoIP, SAP, or even videoconferences.
Secure Encryption and PKI
GeNUCrypt meets the strictest security requirements. Your data is encrypted conforming to highest standards using strong algorithms. Optionally, keys can be created, administered, and distributed to external tokens on the VPN appliances using a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) with a central server. There are then no keys on the device itself, so that the appliance is immediately removed from the VPN by removing the token. Additionally, GeNUCrypt can already function securely with IPv6, so that our customers can be assured of having installed a top-quality, future proof solution.
Always Securely Connected with Clusters
Critical communication connections need to be absolutely fail-safe. To ensure this is the case, GeNUCrypt can be deployed in high availability clusters; the bundled appliances then distribute tasks with load sharing. If one system fails, team members immediately take over its active connections. In addition, you will instantly receive an alarm message, if an appliance or a connection does not work properly. You can always rely on optimum performance and total availability from your VPN connections. The VPN appliance is administrated via a Web GUI. If you have deployed several appliances, administration is comfortably performed via the user-friendly Management Station GeNUCenter. In order to meet varying requirements, we supply GeNUCrypt in several hardware variants, ranging from a maintenance-free, compact appliance up to rack server solutions for high data throughput.
