Comcast Business joins forces with Aruba to launch Comcast Business Telework VPN

Comcast Business has announced that it is joining forces with Aruba for the launch of Comcast Business Teleworker VPN. The new solution is specifically engineered to help enterprises provide their rapidly expanding remote workforces with the same secure, reliable high-performance connection to their corporate network that they have when physically in their office.

Michael Dickman, Senior Vice President of Product Management at Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company.

Comcast Business Teleworker VPN offers a centrally managed remote access VPN solution that enables enterprises to provide employees the same access to their corporate network that they enjoy in the office, remotely. When combined with Comcast Business’s Teleworker Broadband solution, Comcast Business Teleworker VPN provides employees a secure, reliable connection to primary business systems, applications and files. This combination provides employees a dedicated, independent internet connection that does not interfere or compete with their athome internet – freeing up home bandwidth for remote learning, entertainment and more.

Comcast Business Teleworker VPN is powered by Aruba ESP, an enterprise-class, cloud-native platform which is centrally managed by Aruba Central’s single cloud console. When combined with Comcast’s Managed VPN Aggregator service at a business location, enterprises can securely connect home-based devices, including laptops, desktops, VoIP phones, printers and more to the corporate network, enabling them to:
• Reduce the burden on IT with simple, centralized cloud management and optimization that
• detects and dynamically resolves network issues
• 24/7 support provided by Comcast supplements an organization’s IT teams
• Maintain security with policy-based access control and traffic segmentation which can mirror the security settings in effect at the applicable business location
• Enable a hybrid work environment by maintaining a consistent experience between home and office locations

“Work-from-home solutions require enterprise-class security and performance, with consumer-class ease of use,” said Michael Dickman, Senior Vice President of Product Management at Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company. “Aruba ESP delivers on both fronts with secure policy-driven access to the full spectrum of corporate services, in a form factor perfect for home that is simple to use with plug-and-play installation. The new Comcast Business Teleworker VPN offering is a fantastic solution for organizations as they help their remote workers be efficient, creative and productive when connecting to corporate services from any location at any time.”
