SSL ClearView Reporter

Written expressly for the Juniper Networks SSL VPN, the SSL ClearView Reporter™ application takes log data from one or more SSL VPN devices and generates feature-rich reports that provide security professionals valuable insight into network usage and user activity. It also enables IT managers and stakeholders in regulatory compliance (such as PCI, HIPAA, SOX and more) by providing a comprehensive, easy-to-use platform for log review.

SSL ClearView Reporter is offered as an appliance-based solution that deploys in minutes. Soft Appliance and Virtual Appliance options are also available.  Dozens of pre-defined report views get you the visibility you need right out of the box.

ClearView features a Web-based interface for easy accessibility and fast performance. ClearView’s intuitive user interface allows administrators and users to create custom reports quickly and easily without the need for detailed knowledge of log data structure or database schema.
