IPSec VPN Client for Windows Vista 64-bit

NCP introduces a new version of its Secure Entry Client with comprehensive security

NUREMBERG, July 2nd, 2007 - With version 9.01 of the Secure Entry Client NCP engineering GmbH also provides an IPSec VPN client for Windows Vista 64-bit. In February 2007 the Nuremberg-based communications specialist was the first manufacturer worldwide to make the Secure Entry Client available under Vista 32-bit.

The NCP Secure Client is a universal communication software for use in any remote access VPN environment. The Client has extensive security functions: IPSec encryption with AES or 3-DES, authentication via digital certificates and hardware tokens, a dynamic Personal Firewall with Stateful Inspection and Friendly Net Detection for automatic detection of secure and non-secure networks.

The software communicates with VPN gateways from all major vendors. Data is transferred independent of media type via stationary networks, public wireless networks, LANs, wireless networks such as wireless LANs on corporate campuses and at hotspots, as well as via the Internet. Integrated support of Mobile Connect Cards for UMTS, GPRS, and WLAN in the Client Monitor is an added advantage for mobile users. Thus, however, it is not necessary to install the user interface supplied by card vendors. Voice data (VoIP) is transmitted with priority. Integrated QoS (Quality of Service) ensures delay-free and distortion-free communication.

For remote access environments with hundreds or thousands of users NCP offers the Secure Enterprise Client under Vista 32-bit and Vista 64-bit, which can be administered centrally. This Client additionally offers Endpoint Policy Enforcement for monitoring the centrally specified security policy.

In addition to Windows Vista the operating systems Windows 2000 and Windows XP are also supported. Clients for Windows Mobile and Linux round out the product line. Thus uniform configurations can be set up and uniform security settings can be made regardless of the operating system used.

Availability:
The software is available now and is exclusively available via NCP sales partners. NCP customers with older licenses can update to the new version. A 30-day full version of the Secure Entry Client software is available for testing and can be downloaded at
