Check Point VPN-1 now supports the Apple iPhone. So the virtual private networking gateway will protect data as it moves between the iPhone and the corporate data network through an encrypted connection. It works by supporting the embedded iPhone L2TP client. That means iPhoners can receive e-mail and use company resources without installing additional software on their Apple smartphone. According to Check Point, VPN-1 administrators can take advantage of a shared secret password and certificates for all iPhones on the network with specific login credentials for each end user. The company asserts this feature eliminates the need for IT to create separate gateway authentication keys for each device, therefore easing the deployment of iPhones on the network. Overall, VPN-1 enables IT to choose from accelerated security, unified threat management security or virtualized security – all with a unified architecture that is managed and maintained from a single console.
