iWebGate has revolutionised network technology with the creation of a highly versatile and robust demilitarised zone (DMZ) - in an all-in-one solution that comes pre-installed ready to go in any network.
Technically speaking, a demilitarised zone (DMZ) is a middle ground between an organisation's trusted internal network and an insecure, external network such as the Internet. Without implementing a DMZ organisations are either:
- Exposing their internal network to risk and the probability of being breached at some point in time with potentially catastrophic consequences; and/or
- Missing out on the prolific benefits of providing improved access and collaboration to applications, reports and information found within existing infrastructure
The problem is that the costs and technical expertise required to establish and maintain an effective DMZ are very high. Increases to the number of users, services and networks only compounds the technical complexities and costs associated with establishing and maintaining a DMZ
Once a DMZ is established, an organisation is also required to integrate a number of services (e.g. file, reporting and web services) which are typically installed on independent servers with Microsoft being the dominant market provider.
In order to provide remote access to business critical services whilst attempting to optimise network security, the majority of small to large organisations deploy some form of virtual private network (VPN) technology. Reverse proxying services may also be deployed but these to prove to be complicated and expensive to establish and maintain.
To overcome all of these issues, iWebGate has created the World's first genuine "DMZ in a Box" that:
|
 |
Removes the technical complexities, security issues and costs associated with accessing and delivering LAN-based applications and information (including reports) over the web |
 |
Simply deploys in less than 10 minutes using a simple design framework which seamlessly integrates with and enhances your pre-existing network infrastructure including Microsoft technologies |
 |
Easily facilitates hosted services for multiple organisations (sites) and their affiliated users from a single unit |
 |
Instantly drives business efficiencies and delivers improvements in organisational communication and collaboration between management, staff, customers and suppliers |
 |
Delivers business critical information and applications in a timely and convenient way that once seemed impossible |
|
Information, applications, hardware and internet connection already exists in a small to large size organisation. The iWebGate Server immediately integrates with existing infrastructure (including Microsoft technologies) to bring it securely, affordably and easily together into a simple-to-use online environment. |
Purposefully constructed to be easy to set up and maintain the iWebGate Server comes pre-installed with a: |
 |
Sophisticated core portal system |
 |
Embedded reporting engine |
 |
Suite of iWebGate portal applications |
 |
File access and management services |
 |
Email services including built-in mail server with anti-virus and anti-spam |
 |
Website hosting and management services |
 |
SMS gateway access services and more |
Providing both local and remote access, the iWebGate Server comes pre-installed with a suite of simple-to-use applications that integrate with the entire range of embedded services.
Establishing the architecture for the ultimate online office experience, some of the applications incorporated with the iWebGate Server include:
|
 |
iConnect
Enables a remote or internal user to securely connect to a host (i.e. computer, server) via leading web browsers without the use of complicated or unreliable protocols like VPN, or the need to open and map ports at the firewall.
|
 |
iReports
Providing the sophistication to collect information from multiple data sources located in local and remote networks, the iWebGate Server automatically generates and delivers business intelligence reports to trusted users internally and/or over the web, enabling management, staff, suppliers and customers to make more relevant and timely decisions.
|
 |
iFolders
Allows files and folders to be stored in a secure permission-based environment with local and remote integrated access. Additional features include Web Folders and Web Client access via WebDAV services, the ability to easily host multiple websites in a single portal and secure web-based access to any Windows' Server or PC provided network shares. |
 |
iMail
Provides administrators with the ability to easily establish and manage email accounts with fully integrated services including mail forwarding and aliases, SMTP, IMAPS, POP3S, anti-virus and anti-spam filtering plus secure access to Microsoft® Exchange Server without the need to directly expose it to a public network. End users are able to access their email locally and/or online from any computer connected to the Internet. |
 |
iSMS
Provides users with the convenience to send a single or group SMS message from any computer connected to the Internet with significant cost savings.
|
 |
iEducate
Provides the necessary tools to facilitate online education and training programs with a progressive content management system and Q&A management tool in-built plus the ability to reside content on any nominated web server(s)for fast and reliable delivery. |
The iWebGate Server provides all the sophistication, interoperability and security needed to construct and maintain multiple intranet and extranet sites to facilitate the delivery of web services to virtually an unlimited number of sites (e.g. organisations) with no per user or connection fees applying. |
 |
Generate an immediate return on investment by centralising systems, enhancing business services and improving access to primary communication and business tools for stakeholders located anywhere around the globe. |
 |
Immediately deploy a Software as a Service (SaaS) or Cloud Technology offering with the seamless ability to host multiple sites and deliver numerous online services from a single iWebGate Server. |
|
Establishing a highly secure and scalable link between the Internet and backend office systems, iWebGate seamlessly delivers all of the applications, reports and information trusted users need to efficiently drive day-to-day processes.
Some of the primary features and benefits include: |
 |
Eliminate the need for slow and unreliable virtual private network (VPN) connections or the need to insecurely map ports at the firewall for remote access |
 |
Instantly strengthen network security by eliminating the need to directly expose any of your hosts and business critical servers (e.g. Microsoft Exchange or Terminal Services) to a public network like the Internet |
 |
Eliminate the technical limitations and costs associated with 3rd party remote access bridging services |
 |
Instantly eliminate the time, errors and costs associated with manually compiling report |
 |
Overcomes the technical issues and costs associated delivering applications, information and reports for organisations with multiple locations / sites |
 |
Instantly inform all managers, staff, suppliers and customers when conditions occur by delivering applications, information and reports in a secure, permission-based environment |
 |
Eliminates the inconvenience, time and expenses to convert from existing LAN-based applications to web-based solutions |
 |
Significantly decreases the delays and costs associated with business reporting and IT deployment processes for those organisations undergoing mergers and acquisitions |
 |
Provides an organisation with the freedom and power to centralise all their information yet still deliver online solutions instead of using 3rd party hosted applications in disparate networks |
