SIH needed to provide secure remote access to employees, physicians, and technology vendors. Employees needed to work from home or while traveling on business. IT staff required the ability to provide emergency support or assistance outside of normal business hours. SIH required a manageable VPN solution with extremely fast implementation, high scalability, robust security, and lower total cost of ownership than traditional IPSec VPN solutions for the majority of their user-to-site connections.
