Are there any independent SSL VPN's left?
Was just reading on Christofer Hoff's blog (you see I can spell your name), where he clued me in to the fact that Aventail was acquired by SonicWall for about 25 million in cash. We had spoken to the Aventail folks a few months ago and new that something strategic was being looked at, either acquisitions by them or of them. Congrats to all of the folks there, as well as to the SonicWall people.
So is there any SSL VPN's not acquired? It would seem that SSL VPN has made the full transition to feature from product. They have all been gobbled up by Microsoft, Juniper, etc. and know part of remote access solutions. Does that mean less choice and innovation for the end user. Perhaps.
