Authentication in practice
Authentication in StoneGate SSL VPN is a seemingly easy process for the user, the single point of contact is a Web browser that then accesses all resources.The Authentication Service offers five integrated authentication methods relying on the RADIUS protocol:
- StoneGate Mobile Text
- StoneGate Web
- StoneGate Challenge
- StoneGate Password
- StoneGate Synchronized
An additional feature of StoneGate SSL VPN is the management of Certificate Authorities. It provides, among other things, the opportunity to specify several parameters concerning certificate revocation: Certificate Authority Revocation List and Certificate Revocation List retrieval.
Access control is specified by means of roles that link user groups with resources. A number of authentication methods can be set for each resource and it is also possible to specify multiple authentication methods for a specific resource. Examples of authentication methods are client certificates and RADIUS compliant methods. All authentication methods can be used in combination.
