Luminate Secure Access Cloud (TM) changes the way enterprises provide secure access to corporate applications and services hosted in Microsoft Azure. Unlike traditional approaches, where application servers accept inbound network connections to serve users, Luminate isolates the applications from inbound network traffic, while providing a secure point-to-point connection to each application. The solution is client-less and allows for a production-grade deployment to be performed in minutes versus weeks or months. This eliminates the need to deploy complex network security solutions, such as Remote Access VPNs and Next Generation Firewalls, while delivering unparalleled security and insight into any action performed inside corporate applications and services. Luminate Connector is an essential component that needs to be deployed in the Azure datacenter in order to allow secure connectivity to resources.
