| "The
product relies on public key authentication to increase user convenience
and strengthen security. However, deployment and management are simple
and the cost of ownership is low because the product doesn’t
require an infrastructure like other public key based solutions." -- Matthew Kovar, CFA, Yankee Group |
Scalable Performance and Reliability As required by good security practices, the WSA isolates the web site from all networks. Any traffic going to or from the web site must pass through the WSA. The WSA's clustering feature ensures that the WSA will never throttle your site's performance or bring your site down. In situations needing improved performance or enhanced availability, two or more WSAs can be installed "in parallel" as a cluster. The WSAs in the cluster share the load, so the capacity of the cluster is greater than the capacity of a single WSA. The WSAs also monitor each other so in the unlikely event that a WSA fails, the surviving WSAs pick up its traffic. Adding a WSA to a cluster is as simple as cabling. The WSA requires no special clustering hardware or software. A cluster of WSAs is administered as a single unit, so the WSAs automatically share configuration, security policy, user information, and logs. Benefits:
