China Mobile Deploys Array Networks' SSL VPN Solution for Its Enterprise Network; Unique Virtualization Capabilities Instantly Increase Security for World's Largest Mobile Service Provider.

MILPITAS, Calif. & BEIJING -- Array Networks, a leading provider of optimized and secure universal access solutions, today announced that China Mobile, the world's largest mobile service provider, has deployed Array's SSL VPN platform to secure its internal Office Automation Intranet and Supplier Extranet.

After nearly a year of thoroughly evaluating potential solutions, China Mobile concluded that Array Networks' SPX SSL VPN solution offers unsurpassed security features for a large-scale deployment, and lowest total cost of ownership. While most general-purpose SSL VPN solutions provide acceptable security for less than a few hundred users, they lack extra security and operational benefits needed for large-scale, diverse user deployment.

A key factor in China Mobile's choice was Array's virtualization capabilities, which offer extra security by fully separating multiple intranet and extranet resources that control user access to specific applications. Virtualization also minimizes TCO by supporting diverse user intranet and extranet portals on a single hardware platform, thereby eliminating investment in extra hardware and software.

The Array SSL VPN provides China Mobile employees with remote access to its intranet and extranet applications, which streamlines business collaboration, improves efficiency and reduces costs. Array also offers granular security control and cost-effective management benefits. Additionally, the SSL VPN solution provides China Mobile with the lowest latency and highest scalability.

"We are delighted to be partnering with China Mobile to deliver best-in-class security and operational benefits for its business critical operations," said Michael Zhao, president and CEO, Array Networks. "China Mobile and Array both recognize the need to strengthen security while reducing costs. Array's solution shines in a number of areas including virtualization and multi-layer security with custom-built ArrayOS."
