Highest Ratings in InfoWorld Reviews
The FirePass 4100 is an excellent all-around SSL
VPN appliance. It has all of the scalability an
enterprise could want, and it supports a wide
range of remote access options. Its end-point
control Visual Policy Editor provides a
flow-based view of creating log-on sequences that
takes the guesswork out of the equation.
Infoworld Review, 2006
The FirePass 4100 is one of the most flexible,
capable and secure devices available. It works
with virtually any browser, operating system,
terminal protocol and device ranging from
enterprise servers to cell phones... This is
arguably the best remote access product we've
seen in recent memory."
Information Security Magazine, 2006

Within the first three minutes of the evaluation

was so easy to use. Within five minutes I was
