A SSL VPN, on the other hand, requires Java or ActiveX downloads to facilitate access to non-web enabled applications which can become a problem if a firewall is configured to block these controls (Kilpatrick, 2007). Having direct access only to web-enabled SSL applications prevents users from accessing network resources such as printers or centralized storage and from using the VPN for file sharing or file backups (Bradley). Site-to-Site Connectivity

IPSec is still the preferred method for site-to-site VPNs because either IPSec or SSL requires a gateway and because many SSL vendors don't currently offer site-to-site connections (Greene, 2007).

Conclusion

There are a number of factors to consider when choosing between an IPSec and a SSL VPN. A SSL VPN is likely to meeting the needs of a small number of users connecting to a small number of applications. Security, scalability, interoperability and site-to-site connectivity requirements, however, require...

...

However, SSL VPN technology is rapidly advancing, and progress should be closely monitored.

This is however, not considered foolproof. It is possible to break the security by a person having adequate technical expertise and access to the network at hardware level. In view of this the SSL method with right configuration is considered perfectly sufficient for all commercial purposes.5In order to safeguard the data while in transit it is customary to adopt a practical SSL protocol covering all network services that use

Very High - IPSec works at the protocol level, independent of applications, therefore scalability is best-in-class Comparing the technological and operational benefits specifically in the areas of client access options, access control, client-side security, installation, and client configuration highlights just how differentiated the IPv4-based IPSec vs. IPv6 -based SSL protocols are from each other. In analyzing these differences, Table 3: Comparing Technological and Operational benefits of IPv6-based SSL and IPv4-based IPSec

Second, the specific connection points throughout the network also need to be evaluated for their levels of existing security as well, with the WiFi network audited and tested (Loo, 2008). Third, the Virtual Private Networks (VPNS) and the selection of security protocols needs to be audited (Westcott, 2007) to evaluate the performance of IPSec vs. SSL protocols on overall network performance (Rowan, 2007). Many smaller corporations vacillate between IPSec

When portals are designed to the specific requirements of Web 2.0 design objectives, companies with virtual teams are finding they can attain higher levels of shared task ownership as well. This is because there are significantly greater levels of trust overall throughout an organization based on the collective contributions of every member of a virtual and in-office team when they share their knowledge and information together (Mancini, 2010). Portals

Linux Kernel Analysis Much has been written in praise of the Linux (Crandall, Wu, Chong, 359), (Parnas, 112), (Baliga, Iftode, Chen, 323), and its use of preemptive multitasking memory architectures to manage process control, file management, device management, information maintenance and communications subsystems securely and effectively. The Linux modular design, lack of reliance on Remote Procedure Calls (RPC), and use of UNIX-based system administration all are often cited as factors in how
