METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING SECURE ACCESS TO RESOURCES ON PRIVATE NETWORKS

摘要

Improved approaches for providing secure access to resources maintained on private networks are disclosed. In one embodiment, the resources being accessed can be email resources. The secure access can be provided through a public network using a standard network browser. Multiple remote users are able to gain restricted and controlled access to at least portions of a private network through a common access point. The solution provided by the improved approaches is not only easily set up and managed, but also able to support many remote users in a cost-effective manner. In the case of email resources, the solution provided by the improved approaches allows not only native access to email resources but also robust authentication approaches.
