The Whale Intelligent Application Gateway with SharePoint Application Optimizer is the only SSL VPN solution specifically designed for SharePoint. The Whale Intelligent Application Gateway complements the Microsoft Internet Security & Acceleration (ISA) Server 2004 solution for securely publishing SharePoint (and Exchange) by providing additional security elements, integrating third-party applications into the portal and publishing to unmanaged endpoints without requiring a component download. The gateway provides browser-based access, endpoint security including the Attachment Wiper session residue shredder, and the ability to host multiple portals on a single gateway. By leveraging these capabilities, customers can expand the availability of SharePoint to a broad range of users and access scenarios, entrenching its value as a collaboration platform.
