40Cloud Description
The 40Cloud solution makes public clouds private by creating a virtual private network that is connected to your Cloud deployment. This private network uses encrypted communication and consistent IP addressing, making it unreachable from other networks. 40Cloud allows you to set and enforce access rights to your Virtual Private Cloud network using authentication, authorization, and firewall technologies. The Gateways are the only way to access your cloud network using 40Cloud. All remote users (employees or contractors) who access your cloud servers will be authenticated at the Gateways. Your Access Control Policies are enforced at the Gateways. Remote users can connect to the Gateways via standard IPsec VPN technology. The Gateways are installed by the user, usually one Gateway per data center or isolated cloud network. An isolated cloud network is an IP subnet with a layer 2, separation construct (e.g VLAN).
