Hummingbird Connectivity Secure Shell 2008 with 1 Year Maintenance

Description

Open Text Hummingbird Connectivity Secure Shell 2008 is a high-performance secure shell 2 server for Windows. It offers SFTP for secure file transfer and Secure Shell 2 for secure terminal sessions as well as FIPS 140-2 validated encryption for securing network traffic. It is extremely scalable, can support a large number of simultaneous users, transfers files faster than comparable solutions, and has a light memory and processor footprint.

Security concerns are receiving an unprecedented focus from IT organizations these days. While risks associated with security issues have been well understood, many companies are in dire need of a single integrated security solution for their Connectivity environment.

Features:

• X509 Certificate Authentication

  Certified for Windows Vista:

• Guarantees excellent performance and best experience.

  Native x64 Support:

• Native 64-bit support for Microsoft Windows x64 family and Windows Vista.

  SSH command line:

• Allows the user to run remote commands on the host, and to retrieve the output on the Windows client machine. It supports a range of parameters including tunnel profiles.

  Microsoft Windows Kerberos Authentication Support:

• Connectivity Secure Shell now supports the Windows SSPI interface to acquire a security context which can be used to establish a Kerberos authentication in much the same manner as in an external Kerberos provider case.

  Integrated SOCKS Support:

• SOCKS is a networking proxy protocol that enables hosts on one side of a SOCKS server to gain full access to hosts on the other side of the SOCKS server without requiring direct IP-reachability. This feature allows users to configure SSH sessions to use a SOCKS server.

  HTTP and SOCKS Dynamic Port Forwarding:

• Allows HTTP or SOCKS-proxy enabled applications to use a Connectivity Secure Shell tunnel as a VPN to forward connections dynamically, to different hosts, from the tunnel endpoint.

  Additional Browser Support:

• Connectivity Secure Shell and other products that use the HummingbirdDeployment Wizard can now be deployed on Firefox, Opera and 3rd party java-enabled browsers.

  Event Monitoring Server:

• Monitors events generated by Hummingbird Connectivity client applications (e.g. HostExplorer, Connectivity Secure Shell, Hummingbird FTP, Exceed etc.). It logs client-specific actions into an event database and offers various administrative views to analyze that information.

  Certification:

• Certified for Microsoft Windows Vista
