Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
DiamondVPN™ is a rack- mounted network security appliance that can be installed at a LAN edge for a work group or department operating on your enterprise network to enforce a single security profile for traffic outbound from the LAN and access to the LAN from the outside. Unlike traditional VPNs, DiamondVPN™ also offers secure pass-through to networks in which DiamondLink™ protects some users.
