SUNNYVALE, CA--(Marketwire - May 2, 2012) - Juniper Networks (NYSE: JNPR), the industry leader in network innovation, announced additions to its Simply Connected portfolio available today that simplify and secure mobile device access to enterprise networks. With new unified policy enforcement that is simplified and automated, IT managers can now set and automatically enforce consistent security and access policies across every wired, wireless and mobile connection from company-issued, personal and guest devices. This new approach ultimately reduces the burden on IT managers who struggle with bring-your-own-device (BYOD) administration and security enforcement access policies. As the influx of personal devices accessing corporate networks, clouds and applications continues to disrupt enterprise environments, IT managers are faced with new security challenges that bring emerging, complex threats from mobile devices and new end-user applications. Unlike solutions built for traditional networks with static policies and inconsistent enforcement, Juniper's unified policy enforcement provides IT managers with granular control over user access to enterprise networks based on who they are, where they are, what applications they are using, and from what device.
