The software provides encrypted SSL VPN connections to remote users or clients on a secure, virtual tunnel. This allows employees, partners, and customers to access corporate resources such as email, file servers, and applications from anywhere in the world.

The NetExtender software operates as a lightweight client that installs on the end user’s device, typically a laptop or smartphone. Once installed, the user can log in using their credentials, which are authenticated against the company’s directory services or authentication server.
